A Programmer's Introduction to C#
by Eric Gunnerson
"Why should I learn another language?" ponders
Eric Gunnerson, author of A Programmer's
Introduction to C#. "Languages are a little bit
like power tools," he says. "Each tool has its own
strengths and weaknesses." C# promises to be the tool of
choice for Microsoft's new .NET platform. If you're like
many C++ or Java programmers, you'll want to get a handle
on this new language before it's released. This concise,
example-based tutorial covers all the bases of what's new
and improved in C#. Don't get left behind: read this book
to prepare yourself as Microsoft gets C# ready for
primetime in the upcoming year.

MySQL (OTHER NEW RIDERS)
by Paul DuBois, Michael Widenius
The unexpected pleasure of reading books about
databases is that they are often written by authors with
highly organized minds. Paul DuBois and his editors at New
Riders have assembled MySQL with a clarity
and lucidity that inspire confidence in the subject
matter: a (nearly) freely redistributable SQL-interpreting
database client/server primarily geared for Unix systems
but maintained for Windows platforms as well. What isn't
"free" about MySQL (the application) is its server's
commercial use; all clients and noncommercial server uses
are free. DuBois's tome isn't free either, but its list
price is modest in light of its value and the value of its
namesake.

Programming Perl (3rd Edition)
by Larry Wall, et al
Larry Wall wrote Perl and cowrote
Programming Perl; better yet, he writes
amusingly and well--all of which comes across in this
latest edition of the definitive guide to the language.
Like Topsy, Perl just grew, and as a result the need for a
third edition came about. The book is now over 1,000 pages long,
which it needs to be, since it performs several different
duties: it's an introduction to the Perl language
for those who are new to programming; it's a guide
for those who are coming from other languages; and,
finally, it's a Perl language reference.
