Good book with a few errors.

This book is fairly good to treat J2EE and UML.
However, there are some mistakes in the book:
1)Page 11, * should mean 0 or more. So, "Each person object may be associated with several Car objects" is wrong, should be " 0 or more Car objects".
According to the OMG UML 1.4 specificaiton ..., seciton 3.44:
"If the multiplicity specification comprises a single star (*), then it denotes the unlimited nonnegative integer range, that is, it is equivalent to 0..* (zero or more)."
2) Page 52, fig 3.2 is WRONG! It has only join, no fork. In an UML diagram, the fork and join must be paired!
According to Rational Rose 2002 help: "Every fork that appears on an activity diagram should ideally be accompanied by a corresponding join. ".
Besides these errors, I think it is a good book.
Thanks,
David Zuo.

All in all, with the information in this book plus some hands-on experience, I was able to pass 70-270 without much problem.  However, there are several misprints and inaccuracies in the text that I didn't find covered in the "Errata" section on the book's website.

While I can't expect a book to be 100% error-free, there seemed to be more than just the "slipped through the editorial cracks" stuff.  A non-technical editor possibly wouldn't have known that Remote Desktop runs on port 3389, instead of 3398, for example.  The little "gotchas" in the book can be damaging on the exam if you don't thoroughly know the rest of the material well.

Hey, I'm not complaining.  I passed the test. :)

book has a lot of good information and recipes, but also has some basic arithmetic errors so one has to be very careful when using the recipe measurements.  Check your work and make sure your calculations are the same as in the book. If not, recheck the calculations and measurements and use your numbers.

It is good book to get familiar with the test type but my girl found quite a few mistakes in the book.

This book has a good story but there are quite a few editing errors. Other than this being an annoyance I enjoyed the book.

A fun and interesting book. The story line is intriguing. However the editing could use a lot of help.  The second half of the book has more errors than the first half and for a bit there was at least one error per page.  It is distracting.

Reading the book "The Other Wes Moore" for my book club, I found this guide to be helpful.  There were a few typos/grammatical errors that I feel should have been caught before publication, though.

The book was a good help for a person new to Joomla (such as myself). However, there are several errors in the text such as missing steps and ,what appear to be, "cut and paste errors". The errors I found are in addition to the ones listed here:

Will I e-mail the author and "report" these issues? This is NOT Free and Open Source documentation. I paid for the book, which means I paid a sloppy writer and a poor editor. Books should not have errata listed online, they should be properly proofread prior to their release.

Good points but I wanted more examples to be included in the book. I came across the occasional typographical error which drives be crazy. Editing needed.

Loved this book, but I found a few mistakes, and even repeats, which isn't something you'd expect to see in an 'editing' book.  This is not a slam against the author. I am actually thankful for this book, but I am hoping the author reads my review and fixes these errors.

The book was good. It did have some typo's and editing errors that should have been caught. Also, the fact that I read this first then found the rest of the series set about 10 or so years later mad things a little confusing. Overall, it was a good read.

Good book w/ nice pictures, but has errors and needs a better proofreader.

While this book seems thorough and informative, the editor of the book clearly missed quite a few errors. Many of the mathematical equations/concepts within the book are missing one or more operator (= < > * ^ + -, etc). I bought this book as a textbook for one of my classes, and we are required to use many of these equations, and understand the concepts. It is quite frustrating when the equations are incomplete, and I must go online to determine the complete equation. Not to mention, some of the exercise questions are also missing parts of the equations. The content of the book is excellent and the concepts are presented in a manner easy to understand, but the lack of proof-reading is a glaring mistake. I do not expect such sloppy and lazy editing to be present in a graduate-level textbook. It makes this book difficult and choppy to read, as I am constantly having to stop and figure out if an equation should have a '=' or a '<' symbol in it, or if two number should be added or multiplied together.

I enjoyed this book quite a lot. However, I would hesitate to recommend it because the exercise answer key contains a number of errors (e.g. referencing a rule about comma usage with quotations when there are no quotations in the question). Hopefully, the author will release an updated, corrected version, as I would like to be able to accurately check my work. It would also be nice if the author created another set of exercises, especially if it contained questions for all of the rules. I would certainly purchase such an add on if he did.

Good content, but needs some more proofreading.  I recommend it for knowledge & if you can overlook the minor errors.

Hi there, folks. I'm the author of this book and I'm quite embarrassed by the number of errors that were allowed to be printed. You can go to my website and download entire pages that are corrected:

I hope you still enjoy the book, despite the errors.

The book was fine except that it contained an unusual amount of errors.  UMBC's Dr. Roustamian has set up an errata page for this book (in which I personally have added several entries) which goes through many of the book's errors.
