"Project Management for Modern Information Systems" is the text book I would recommend to new students of Project Management. It incorporates the latest techniques, terminology, and interfaces to related technologies. Well written and easy to read. Subject matter is well organized.

The author presents IT project management in an easy to understand, applied manner. A must for IT managers from large or small enterprises. Get this book. It's a must read.

"Project Management for Modern Information Systems" offers a thorough examination of Project Management for project mangement professionals emphasizing information systems, but definitely not limited to or constrained by IS. Development of each topic includes technical, business, and strategic perspectives, building clear imperatives for "best practice". Each chapter is well developed and easy to read with excellent examples throughout.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Brandon and hearing him speak multiple times on the subject of project management, and I feel confident in saying that you ll have a hard time finding anyone with the depth and breadth of experience Dan possesses. Furthermore, through his academic and industry experience, he has learned to write about project management principles in a manner that is both rigorous yet easy to understand.

I like this boo

I got an old version copy of this book. I was wondering if they have published an updated copy yet. This is "the" book you need to know everything about internet server administration. I wish the publisher print the book in a new updated edition.

Almost two years ago I was lucky enough to find this wonderful reference book. At the time I was just getting stated as an Internet consultant and was in great need of some technical material. Little did I know that this book would play such a big part in my future. I'll admit that at first, some of the material was a bit over my head. However, as my work drew me deeper into the tech aspect of web servers, I always had the answers I needed close at hand. It's hard to believe that with all the advancements in technology, this book has not been outdated. In fact, until recently, I would reach for it on a frequent basis. I would still be reaching for it today, but unfortunately my copy was book-napped!

This book is two years old and is still the best one on the market.

It covers all the topics a webmaster needs to know: bandwidth calculation, httpd server setup, html, and cgi forms. The information is presented in a clear manner for the novice without talking down or being "cute". Read it cover to cover and it will take you to journeyman webmaster status.

Excellent presentation from begining HTML through basic graphics and CGI scripts. I use this as a basic reference book in maintaining my website. I found the section on "Creating a Guest Book" and "Web-Based Conferencing System" especially useful in developing a chat capability on the site. The chapter on "Creating, Using and Understanding Images" gave me basic information on speeding up my Website

Laura Lemay, in here educational masterpiece "Teach Yourself Web Publishing With HTML In 14 days", grabs the internet babes and transforms them into HTML scholars! The pages turn themselves as you develope a skill that will take you further than than any other. If you know nothing about HTML, or you have a working knowledge of it already "Web Publishing With HTML" is the book for you

This book will start you off in the right direction for learning and creating HTML documents. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in HTML. The author Laura Lemay does a great job at explaining HTML in simple and easy to understand examples.

This book provided me with a great start for writting HTML documents. After completing this "quick read," you'll find yourself referring back to it often for a quick reference. I would highly recommend this, or any of the other Laura Lemay books.

The title is a bit misleading, in that the book is nearly all about Javascript. Broken down into a collection of short tutorials, each of which solves a specific problem, they are all understandable. The problems solved are not general in nature, in that not everyone needs to know how to solve them. However, they can be considered members of the category of unusual problems with a non-obvious solution. You may never confront the specific problem, but if you do, then the solution is here for you.
Some of the problems solved are:

* How to create a pop under window.
* How to use a table to create an image with rounded corners.
* How to create printable pages where the banner ads are absent.
* How to redirect the print of a page so that another is printed.
* How to prevent a page from being cached on the client machine.
* How to create an OnError error handling page.

In general, the statement of the problem and the solution take up less than three pages. With very little code to explain, the solutions are easy to understand. I have been teaching and programming in Javascript for over six years and yet I learned several things from the book. To sweeten the deal even further, all of the source code, graphics and other data used in the book are freely available from the companion web site ...
Depending on what you are creating, you may never have a use for the solutions in this book. However, if you are faced with one of these problems, then the solution is well in hand and you will be happy with the way it is constructed.

I have this man's complete series of HTML books. Any time my friends or I have a question, the answer is in one of these!

Perfect for newbies and pros alike!

I've had this book for several years now and I refer to it constantly to keep me fresh. It is undoubtedly one of the must-have guides for all html newcomers! It is precise and concise with plenty of on-screen illus. to help you along. Buy it!

One day my uncle bought me this for my birthday. I was completely new to webpublishing and had never built a (good) website before in my life. Jonah Neugass explains the material so well a complete beginner like myself could become a master website builder in days. Thanks Jonah and keep up the goodwork!

I bought this book because I flipped through it in the bookstore and found it to have illustrations unlike all of the other HTML books. It explains step-by-step, picture-by-picture how to design and publish web pages. A must buy for beginners. It is very clear and very easy to understand.

I wrote the review "Not Just for Kids" in 1998. After I learned how to create web pages (thank you, Christoper Lampton!), I built on this new knowledge by analyzing the code in other websites, reading other books, and expanding my skills through practice. Now I teach workshops for adults and I'm in my fourth contract year as a teacher in our local homeschool assistance program, teaching both writing and Web site design (www.kimn.net)--all thanks to HOME PAGE. Who knew? This is THE book to get your child, or for yourself, if you want to know how to create a Web site with graphics, photos, and text, with links galore. My youngest son at age 9 picked up all the basics from this book, and two years later at age 11 is proficient in Visual Basic programming language and devouring C++ books. I hope the publisher reconsiders and reprints this book so it DOESN'T go out of print. There's NOTHING as inspiring, as simple, as concise, or as clear as HOME PAGE by Christoper Lampton. ~Kimn S. Gollnick, www.kimn.net.

I have seen books, and I have seen covers, but this one puts them all to rest!!!

When I get the book, I'll talk about the inside, but the outside looks great!!!

who says you can't judge a book by it's cover???

For two years I've wanted to make my own web page, but I didn't know how. This book by Lampton takes the mystery out of web pages. If you can type, you can make a web site, following the clear instructions in this book! Especially helpful are the side-by-side graphics showing how the typed page looks (the HTML code and text you type) and how it appears when viewed with a browser like Netscape (and how it will appear on the Internet). Using this book, I set up my first home web page in just two hours. EXCELLENT book!

Can't seem to find it in stores anymore. Get it here. Great intro to give to someone just getting started. Lots of pictures, screen shots, etc.

This book went step by step from knowing nothing about writing a web page to making a quite complete up-to-date one. And all from scratch, needing only a text editor such as notepad. Links to graphics, various plug-ins, and other helpful downloads are provided. Lots of clear, very helpful pictures are used. I could have had my first page up the next day if I had had a server available

This book is great for people just starting out in HTML. It takes you step-by-step through the basics of creating a great web page. The book provides in depth description along with colorful examples. It also provides extra pointers, along with links to helpful web sites. This book took me from knowing nothing about HTML to becoming a web master of my own site.

This was the fourth book on HTML I've purchased and the only one that was clear and made sense. The explanations are great and pictures helpful. I followed it and created my web page in a short time

As a beginner, learning HTML was a daunting prospect. Scott Arpajian's book, HTML3 was a real FIND for me. Since reading this book (more than once) I have constructed a personal homepage, and successfully completed several college computer courses requiring HTML work. THANKS.

Resently I got an assignment to build a web page but I had absolutely no experience. Fortunately, I had picked this book up intending some day to read it. Using HTML3 as my only source of reference, I was able to build a multi-paged web site with over 400 links world-wide. If it hadn't been for this book, I'd still be scratching my head and wondering how to start.

I was a seasoned HTML programmer a few years ago. Since then, I fell out of the craft and needed a book to start from the beginning so I wouldn't miss anything. This was that book. Examples, references, and meaningful information pertaining to the language. Recommended to anyone looking for a place to start on their own webspace.

Honestly, I just got the book today. But guess what, I've been glued to my desk for 5 hours by now... First of all, if you know what it feels like to have ALL of your questions answered regarding the webpage you're working on then you know how I feel right now. This book is every bit competent as it was written to be - an html "reference." I am no newbie in html but still, I like how the book organize and explain the syntax and methodology of this language. My favorite section of the book was on style sheets, not only did I learn quite a few new tricks (or maybe they were simply not listed in my other reference) but I also found the cross-browser reference very useful. This is a fantastic reference that's full of examples and thoughtful materials. Just so you know, my other reference is the well-know "html 4 for the world wide web" by Elizabeth Castro. I must say it is well deserved the praise and hypes because nothing I've seen can topper this champ for for it's purpose -- it'll get you started in no time. But trust me, after you start programming in html for a while, you'll need a more in-depth reference. well, look no further, this is IT. At first I was hesitated to buy this book because there's no review on it......now I'm just a happy reader.

This is the only book for HTML 4.01 needed. Written and arranged so that information is easily found and understood. An excellent, comprehensive resource for both novice and experienced alike as it touches on everything one would need to know, forms-tables-style sheets-deprecated's, etc.

It is really easy to comprehend. I am not an A student in my 8th grade classes but I can understand it without doughts. I look at HTML in a different way now that I now what they are used for.

this book is highly attractive from the start. It's organization makes it look like one of the easiest entry-level books, but it's challenging because it uses the notepad format for writing web pages. This is the best way to learn! This excellent book has a perfect pace; not too fast and not too slow. With easy-to-finish activities, it fits HTML classes into my BUSY schedule! I think this book is worth every penny of the price!

I'm taking an introductory course in HTML at the local technical college. The instructor is using this text. I'm most pleased with it. It's just challenging enough without overwhelming the student. The excercises are fun and practical. While most people these days use web tools like FrontPage 98, my company's computer specialist tells me that a basic knowledge of HTML "from scratch" (as provided by this book) will enable me to make much better use of web authoring tools than people without such training.
