Distilled

David Carlson

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2005

Configuration Salvation
I manage multiple developers spread around the globe building product relying on the Eclipse Web Standard Tools (WST) and other parts of Eclipse. Getting each team member's IDE configured and updated was sucking up time. Chapter 9, "Updating the Eclipse IDE," saved ...

SQL Server Query Performance Tuning Distilled, Second Edition

Sajal Dam

Apress, 2004

Best SQL Server Book I've Ever Read
I'm a developer, not a DBA. Reading this book took me from having a mish-mash of fuzzy tuning concepts to being solid at tuning. If you take the time to read (and absorb) this book cover-to-cover, you will find yourself more knowledgable than almost any developer you ...

Wisdom Distilled from the Daily: Living the Rule of St. Benedict Today

Joan Chittister

HarperOne, 1991

Every once in a while, you find a gem.
This is one of them. Every page is filled with peace and wisdom. I found this book, of course, "by accident" (that is, by the grace of God) just at the time my extraordinarily holy Catholic parish priest and spiritual director was discerning whether or not to become a ...

OpenGL(R) Distilled (OpenGL)

Paul Martz

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2006

A good handbook for beginning OpenGL programmers
I often get asked for good starter books that can teach proper OpenGL concepts. The problem with most of these books is that concepts are expressed en masse with huge code blocks, often obscuring the actual concept being expressed. In this reguards, "Distilled" is ...

Whiskey & Spirits For Dummies (For Dummies (Cooking))

Perry Luntz

For Dummies, 2007

Travelling through spirit-land

Kindred Spirits: The Spirit Journal Guide to the World's Distilled Spirits and Fortified Wines

F. Paul Pacult

Hyperion Books, 1997

Perhaps The Best Whisky and Liquor Tasting Guide
One of the best whisky guides, even though it is diluted with other hard liquors as well. Not as pretty as "Michael Jackson's Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch" (there are no pictures), it has the better, more complete tasting notes, and user-friendly rating ...

UML Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Standard Object Modeling Language (3rd Edition) (Addison-Wesley Object ...

Martin Fowler

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2003

Excellent introduction to UML and the software design process.
If you would like to get a better grasp on doing some high-level software design, UML Distilled turns out to be a much better book than I had anticipated. I expected a dry tutorial of the UML notation, but it is thankfully much more than this. UML Distilled (3rd Ed.) ...

SQL Server Security Distilled, Second Edition

Morris Lewis

Apress, 2004

A Note from the Author
I spent just under 2 years doing the research for this book. In terms of breadth of coverage, there is no better book on the market. Rather than searching Microsoft's mammoth site for articles and white papers, everything you need to understand SQL Server security from ...

Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Distilled (Addison-Wesley Microsoft Technology Series)

Scott Schnoll

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2004

Excellent book on all the changes.
At first, I didn't think there could be a whole book on just the changes between 2000 and 2003. Boy was I wrong. This is an excellent book for a seasoned Exchange 2000 administrator upgrading to 2003. It's ok for people trying to learn Exchange, but it assumes ...
