Category: Programming

Computer Graphics; John Foley, pages 1175.

With a reputation as the "classic" work on computer graphics. This book looks at the mathematics behind magic. You will learn the mathematical models used in creating computer graphics. It is a book that requires thinking...the book you want to read if you really want to learn computer graphics. It is not a good source for cut and paste code.

Published in 1995, the book is might be a tad out of date with technology, but the mathematics haven't changed, and this is the book that defined the technology.

PHP For The World Wide Web; Larry Ullman, pages 267.

A book for beginning PHPers. This book takes you through introductory essays on variables, statements, and programming structures. It is a great book for people who are interested in beginning programming.

The book is written in an easy to read two column format. (with text in the first column and examples or code in the second column.) The book gives you a good feel for the basic language, and is enough to get you adding some basic inactivity in a web page. I would rate the book a step or two above the typical dummy book...however I wouldn't recommend it to someone who is a already familar with programming C or Java. The book lacks the technical details that professional programmers like.

An excellent book for the beginning PHP programmer. This book includes a clearly written introduction to database design, and PHP programming. It caps off you adventure by creating several fully functional web enabled databases.

The CD includes a working copy of MySQL, PHP and an Apache web server. Everything you need to get up and running.

Professional PHP Programming; Jesus Catagnetto et al., pages 900.

Professional PHP Programming is a big, thick programming reference. It covers most of main material needed for programming in PHP. You can find the majority of the information from PHP professional in the online documentation at php.net. However, it is nice to have a paper reference, and the book and a few examples. I would recommend the book for any serious PHP programmer.
