A very comprehensive reference book

This book was a big surprise to me when I first read it.

I read this book to get a sense of how to use R for web scrapping. The depth of this area is much beyond my expectation.

The later chapters covered some case studies and practical topics of text mining, which is another surprise to me.

The one thing I am not happy with the book is, some codes don't seem to work properly; maybe because some websites were changed.

This is a very comprehensive book on home roasting. This book goes in depth in almost every aspect of roasting coffee beans including, but not limited to the following: history, types of roasting styles, types of roasters, coffee beans around the world, how to achieve a desired coffee roast "style." I highly recommend this book to those that are interested in coffee roasting.

This is a comprehensive book that will serve as a reference guide for years to come. Dave has compiled years of experience that is technical at times, but then immediately followed with an understandable explanation. This is must-have book for any homebrewer of all skill levels.

This book is more of a reference book than one you read cover to cover.  Neverless, it is very complete and well documented.

Very good, all-encompassing reference book.  Covers many topics.  Not many specific equations but moreso general procedures.

This is a comprehensive book with descriptions of the principals of electronic pickups, pots and capacitors, as well as specifics such as wiring diagrams for specific models. This is not a glitzy looking book, but rather, some diagrams appear to be hand-drawn. But the technical information is all there, few detals omitted.

This practical volume provides a thorough coverage of Access 2000's features, explaining each function in detail, providing a well-rounded knowledge base for the learner. It is written with the beginner and experienced user in mind, covering everything from the basics to the more advanced topics.
It is a training manual and reference book combined, with chapters designed so they can be studied in any order, though working sequentially would be the ideal way to go. The material and specific tasks covered in previous chapters are reviewed for consolidation, and even finding a specific topic is made easy through its exhaustive index.
However, if you are in a hurry to delve into the secrets of Access 2000, there is a detachable quick start hands-on guide at the beginning of the book, from which you can learn the basics and acquire a general overview of Access' features in a short time. It also contains various keyboard shortcuts.  The accompanying CD contains the book in electronic form, the files used throughout the manual, and several other useful programmes.

This is a very big book full of lots of important and valuable info.  This book can be used extremely efficiently as a reference guide.  It has lots of thorough and clear info on more things about Vista than I'll probably ever need.  Great book.

I highly recommend this book. I found it to be a very useful and comprehensive guide for those interested in collecting autographs. It pretty much covers most of the autographs that a collector could ever hope to collect.  I would expect that this book will become the industry standard reference guide for the autograph hobby. In particular, I found the sections on the Supreme Court, World War I and II, to be quite interesting.

The book earns its high rating for the signature samples alone.  However, as a bonus, the author also gives the reader a nice little write up as to each of the individuals whose signature is profiled.  The write ups make thumbing through the book very interesting, and hard to put down.  This book is well written and worth every penny.

It is a very useful reference book for anyone interested in power generation. It contains general mechanical and electrical theory, design approach, operation and maintenance concepts. It has practical value as it contains broad information about steam turbines, gas turbines and auxiliaries. It is a very valuable desk reference.
