    4 out of 5 stars Very nice Q/A section .......2006-04-05

    I am a manager (and still developing, however as little as possible) for a group of developers working with Oracle Apps 11i and a custom integrated web application for our sales and manufacturing department. I own both the Java and the J2EE version of this book and will be cross posting my comments to both of them. The comments below are both mine and senior members of my staff that have gone through both books.

    Both books contain very similar information with regards to the interview process - proper dress code when showing up for an interview, assessing job skills, the values of certification and formal education requirements.

    The heart of both the Java and J2EE books, however, is the Q/A section. Both are filled with well written and insightful questions that could be used for many J2EE or Java candidate positions.

    With regards to the J2EE book, I feel that there was good coverage on Servlets, JSP, JDBC and JMS, however, I would have liked to seen more (actually any) questions on Struts, DBO and Web Services.

    Generally speaking, both books are well worth the $$$ and I was very impressed by the quality of the Q/A section. Hopefully a newer version of this book will address Struts and Web Services.

    1 out of 5 stars A really bad book ..........2006-03-12

    The author appears to have no serious managerial experience: he seems to be a self-employed DBA. And it shows. Bigtime.

    The model candidate, according to the author, would appear to be a conformist left-brained banking clerk. I have worked with and hired developers with a varied range of dress habits, personal manners, backgrounds and education. Good developers come in all sorts of shapes, sizes and colors. The best programmer I ever worked with never had a high-school education. Following this book's guidelines for assessing candidates' personal qualities would have excluded 2/3 of the best developers I know.

    It's riddled with prejudice: "the female job applicant with three children less than five years of age may not be appropriate for an IT position that requires long hours on evenings or weekends." But it would be OK for a man with three such children to neglect them? And what does it say about a company and management which cannot organize projects without expecting excessive overtime?

    The author appears to have no idea of the existence of employment legislation, anti-discrimination law, management techniques or how to motivate people. One has the impression that the recommendations would be more appropriate for a correctional facility or a kindergarten school than a twenty-first century development shop.

    The technical questions reveal immaturity and inexperience. Design abilities are far more important to the fate of a project than technical minutiae. Yet no questions are included that would enable a manager to distinguish someone who really understands good principles of object oriented design. Just asking questions about patterns that a trained parrot could answer is hopelessly inadequate.

    The technical questions are about half the book. But they are repetitious, the 'answers' are often too specific - one 'right' answer when several alternatives are equally appropriate. Some are obscure and totally academic: 'What is the Java Remote Method Protocol(JRMP)?'. Who cares? JRMP goes on completely under the covers and a developer has no need to know even of its existence. Some questions are plain wrong: 'What are the two transport protocols used by J2EE web-based client applications?'. 'HTTP and HTTPS transport protocols' comes the answer. First, HTTP is not a transport protocol but an application level protocol. Second, there is no HTTPS protocol: HTTPS is a URI scheme which is used to indicate that HTTP will be tunneled through secure sockets.

    By the time the candidate has been asked Non-Technical Questions 8 ('If you were a vegetable, which vegetable would you be?') and 9 ('Describe the month of June'), any sensible candidate will already be asking themselves Non-Technical Question 10: 'Why do you want to work here?'

    2 out of 5 stars Useless advice.......2005-12-03

    Sometimes I wonder if the author's advice is very biased towards their own knowledge of the technology and qualifications. I mean, come on, proper dress code???, education in the ivy league schools???

    1. Dress code is the responsibility of each employer, some larger corporations might adhere to a stricter dress code, some smaller ones (especially technology companies) could care less if you wear jeans to work, as long as you are knowledgeable and productive.

    2. College degree. I disagree with the statement that "You **must** possess a certification and/or degree. You truly can't make such hard qualifying statements, since most IT jobs in the industry require degree or equivalent experience. I mean, come on, I know plenty of great developers who didn't finish college, but have many years of Enterprise Application Development under their belt. What if you are an industry acknowledged expert, book author, and have many years of experience, do you disqualify that candidate if they don't have a formal degree?

    Basically I almost felt like the author is a psychology expert (which half of this book is dedicated to), vs. sticking strictly to technical questions and qualifications. Does the author also have a **degree** if psychology? Otherwise based in his statements, he's definitely not qualified to make such recommendations.

    1 out of 5 stars its a book for time pass.......2005-10-18

    50% of book is with general topics, other than J2EE

    1 out of 5 stars do you want to hire the best?.......2005-09-23

    Amusingly, Hunter states how certain questions should not be asked of job candidates in the US, due to non-discrimination laws. But he then immediately proceeds to broadly hint (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) how the interviewer should indirectly ferret out such data, if you deem it germane.

    He then goes on to suggest that interviewees should adopt the dress of the executive and banking industries. Wretched idea. A spineless conformism. Do you want to have the chance to hire the best people or not? His advice can cause you to lose some creative and brilliant programmers who care little about a dress code or those employers who set store by it.

    Sure, some top notch people will readily conform. But others won't. And the truly talented do not have to work for you. You are competing for them, more than the reverse. For a purely, self interested viewpoint, you should not impose a dress code. Maximises your chances of getting the best.

    1 out of 5 stars Horrible.......2007-08-07

    This narrow minded, interrogation oriented guide is simply horrible. The only person to recommend this to is the job seeker -- to prepare you for the more mean spirited interviews. My advice would be to walk away, but if you really want the job, then awareness of this sort of interview practice might help you get hired.

    As another reviewer observed, if companies really do follow this sort of advice, then they deserve the people they hire. Now, some companies may want a team of willing white shirts with heads full of programming language details. If you're one of those, buy the book. However, note that ascertaining real competence, creativity and aptitude take a back seat here; it's form over substance.

    When I think about the very best "techies" I've hired and worked with over the past 30 years, many would not successfully pass an interview process modelled after the advice in this book. Unbelievable. The credentials for the author to write this book, as far as I can tell, are these: IT executive and horse trainer. I rest my case.

    1 out of 5 stars abysmal.......2007-01-14

    I often interview programmer candidates, so I bought this book to calibrate my interviewing style and skills. I am appalled at the advice in the book -- I guess I should hope other firms do interview this way, so they'll gather the programmers I definitely don't want and leave the good ones for me.

    Besides the defects other reviews have already mentioned (in this day and age, if you only hire candidates who show up in suit&tie as this book recommends, you'll end up missing many of the best techies!), some parts are positively creepy -- e.g., under "Gleaning Demographics" it claims that, while some questions are illegal, you should still slily ask questions to hiddenly gather that kind of information, since aspects such as whether the candidate has small kids (illegal to ask about that) should "factor strongly into a hiring decisions" -- so, ask what the candidate does to relax, that will dupe them into revealing whether they have a family.

    Disgusting, really, and I find myself hoping somebody ends up in lots of trouble for practicing such weaselly duplicity -- meanwhile, all I can recommend to anybody but outright weasels is to carefully avoid this horrible book.

    4 out of 5 stars Nice to have book - If you need quick questions on C++ and Oracle.......2006-11-08

    This book certainly helps managers interviewing programmers who claim expertise with many languages. If you own a J2EE shop and looking for Oracle and C++ expertise and need tough questions to ask....the questions prescribed in this book is good. Also note, this book does'nt help you as a reference for any other practical use of those languages.

    5 out of 5 stars Another Good Interview Guide.......2006-09-01

    This is another good book in the Job Interview series from Rampant. As with the other books, this book gives both the employer and the candidate guidance in areas such as work experience, personal appearance and education.

    The questions that are provided in the book give a good base for the employer to ask the candidate. Of course, each company will need to modify or use only the questions that they will need.

    I would recommended this book to any employer or candidate seeking a programming job in one of the languages covered.

    2 out of 5 stars too general to be useful.......2006-02-16

    The advice on interviewing is very general and can be found to the same detail with google. The advice is all useful, but it's not worth the price and the style is a little goofy for what I expected to be a more professional book.

    The technical interview questions are atrocious. As others have commented, the "easy" questions are useful (e.g. how do you indicate comments?) and some of the solutions to the "hard" questions are incorrect (e.g. they try to illustrate a common C pointer bug in correctly written code).

    The book just lacks content.

                        Book Description

                        Astrobiology -- the study of the intimate relationship between life and the cosmos -- is a fast-growing field that touches on aspects of cosmology, astrophysics, and chemistry. In the first scholarly overview of this dynamic field, biochemists Kevin W. Plaxco and Michael Gross tell the story of life from the Big Bang to the present.

                        Emphasizing the biochemical nature of astrobiology, Plaxco and Gross examine the origin of the chemical elements, the events behind the developments that made the Universe habitable, and the ongoing sustenance of life. They discuss the formation of the first galaxies and stars, the diverse chemistry of the primordial planet, the origins of metabolism, the evolution of complex organisms, and the feedback regulation of Earth's climate. They also explore life in extreme habitats, potential extraterrestrial habitats, and the search for extraterrestrial life.

                        This broadly accessible introduction captures the excitement, controversy, and evolution of the dynamic young field of astrobiology. It shows clearly how scientists from different disciplines can combine their special knowledge to enhance our understanding of the Universe.

                        5 out of 5 stars Brilliant Book For The Armchair Scientist .......2006-09-27

                        Imagine that your best friend were some brilliant world-famous scientist. Now imagine that the two of you were sharing a beer one night, and you carelessly asked the question: "I wonder if there is life elsewhere in the Universe?"

                        This book would be his answer.

                        "Astrobiology," by Kevin Plaxco and Michael Gross, is the perfect book for the armchair scientist. It should sit on your bookshelf beside Hawking's "Brief History of Time." It would also be an excellent book for the curious undergraduate.

                        Plaxco and Gross fill the book with easy, accessible prose, and lots of great science. Best of all, the sidebars, with which the book is liberally sprinkled. They make you feel like you are busy bending an elbow with a scientist that has a wicked sense of humor. After all, how many science books can you think of that use the word `flummoxed'?

                        If the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" had a chapter on astrobiology, this would be it.

                        4 out of 5 stars Astrobiology: An Attractive Introduction.......2006-08-07

                        Biology is not complete without the astro-physical environment that produces the sun, the earth and the building blocks of life.
                        We can never fully understand life and evolution if we don't include the universe.
                        At bottom it is ecology extended to the cosmic environment.
                        A huge eye-opener for me was Barrow & Tippler (1994) The Anthropic Cosmological Principle.
                        They showed that my biology training was hopelessly incomplete.
                        A second eye-opener was Tibor Gánti (2003) The Principles of Life.
                        For the first time in my life I had the feeling that I truly understood what the essence of life is and what the origin of life problem actually is, despite reading many books about the origin of life.
                        Now we have the science of astrobiology which combines both the universe as a cradle for life and insights into the nature of life.
                        I have been looking for some time for a suitable introduction into astrobiology until I found
                        Kevin Plaxco & Michael Gross (2006) Astrobiology: A Brief Introduction.
                        It is a very attractive book: a pleasure to read, enthusiastically and fluently written, full of relevant information, not loaded with boring details, the right price (indeed there are far more expensive introductions and textbooks).
                        Despite being an introduction, it is nourishing and thanks to being an introduction it is very digestible.
                        The book contains many stimulating thoughts and facts. Kevin Plaxco is a professor of chemistry. I think that chemistry
                        is the right science here: it is in the position to connect biology and astronomy (physics cannot bridge biology and astronomy because it differs too much from biology).
                        Michael Gross is a science writer. I suspect that a great part of the attractiveness of this book can be ascribed to him.
                        In the hands of Plaxco and Gross an otherwise boring table of yields of amino acids in the Miller-Urey experiment
                        becomes fascinating.
                        The book is richly illustrated with black and white illustrations and photographs (but fortunately no expensive glossy paper is used) and has many interesting sidebars.
                        [...].

                          Book Description

                          Family Therapy Techniques briefly reviews the basic theories of Marriage and Family Therapy. It then goes into treatment models designed to facilitate the tailoring of therapy to specific populations and the integration of techniques from what often seems like disparate theories. Based on the assumption that no single approach is the definitive approach for every situation, the book leads students through multiple perspectives. In teaching students to integrate and tailor techniques, this book asks them to take functional methods and approaches from a variety of theoretical approaches, without attempting to reiterate the theoretical issues and research covered in Theories courses.

                            Mother Nature: A History of Mothers, Infants, and Natural Selection should be required reading for anyone who happens to be a human being. In it, Hrdy reveals the motivations behind some of our most primal and hotly contested behavioral patterns--those concerning gender roles, mate choice, sex, reproduction, and parenting--and the ideas and institutions that have grown up around them. She unblinkingly examines and illuminates such difficult subjects as control of reproductive rights, infanticide, "mother love," and maternal ambition with its ever-contested companions: child care and the limits of maternal responsibility. Without ever denying personal accountability, she points out that many of the patterns of abuse and neglect that we see in cultures around the world (including, of course, our own) are neither unpredictable nor maladaptive in evolutionary terms. "Mother" Nature, as she points out, is not particularly concerned with what we call "morality." The philosophical and political implications of our own deeply-rooted behaviors are for us to determine--which can be done all the better with the kind of understanding gleaned from this exhaustive work.

                            Hrdy's passion for this material is evident, and she is deeply aware of the personal stake she has here as a woman, a mother, and a professional. This highly accomplished author relies on her own extensive research background as well as the works of others in multiple disciplines (anthropology, primatology, sociobiology, psychology, and even literature). Despite the exhaustive documentation given to her conclusions (as witness the 140-plus-page notes and bibliography sections), the book unfolds in an exceptionally lucid, readable, and often humorous manner. It is a truly compelling read, highly recommended. --Katherine Ferguson

                            Book Description

                            Maternal instinct--the all-consuming, utterly selfless love that mothers lavish on their children--has long been assumed to be an innate, indeed defining element of a woman's nature. But is it? In this provocative, groundbreaking book, renowned anthropologist (and mother) Sarah Blaffer Hrdy shares a radical new vision of motherhood and its crucial role in human evolution.

                            Hrdy strips away stereotypes and gender-biased myths to demonstrate that traditional views of maternal behavior are essentially wishful thinking codified as objective observation. As Hrdy argues, far from being "selfless," successful primate mothers have always combined nurturing with ambition, mother love with sexual love, ambivalence with devotion. In fact all mothers, in the struggle to guarantee both their own survival and that of their offspring, deal nimbly with competing demands and conflicting strategies.

                            In her nuanced, stunningly original interpretation of the relationships between mothers and fathers, mothers and babies, and mothers and their social groups, Hrdy offers not only a revolutionary new meaning to motherhood but an important new understanding of human evolution. Written with grace and clarity, suffused with the wisdom of a long and distinguished career, Mother Nature is a profound contribution to our understanding of who we are as a species--and why we have become this way.

                            5 out of 5 stars A Triumph!.......2007-05-13

                            Utterly fascinating and, when it comes to understanding what makes human beings tick, is of greater reality, to my mind, than the phantasmagorical reaches of psychoanalysis, and more fundamental. Painstakingly researched. A scholarly book written in an accessible and engaging style.

                            5 out of 5 stars Must-read for any woman or parent (especially working moms!).......2005-11-18

                            I find myself raving about this book to every woman (and man) I know. This is the most astounding and thought-provoking book I've read in recent years. Professor Hrdy is an emeritus professor of anthropology at UC Davis who puts the behavior of mothers and infants into an evolutionary context, using a comparative approach and drawing from sociobiology, anthropology, and psychology. I enjoyed this book from my perspectives as a student who did doctoral research in behavioral ecology; as a scientist who's tired of the superficial stereotype of instinctive, selfless maternal devotion; and most profoundly as a mother who's trying somehow to balance the equation of doing good for my family, myself, and the world as an ecologist with a conservation group. I appreciated the fact that she did not just rely on her own research on langur monkeys, but extensively reviewed other studies (and pointed out the dearth of studies that challenge societal assumptions that all mothers should care for every infant under any circumstance). She also entertains different hypotheses instead of just staking out a prescription based on an idealized version from one point in human evolutionary history (i.e. romanticizing hunter-gatherer societies), as seen in anthropologist Meredith Small's "Our Babies, Ourselves", which is also a wonderful book, but lacks the breadth of Hrdy's scholarship.

                            I frequently read this book as I rocked and nursed my infant son, which made everything more vivid to me. Hrdy writes with grace and humor about topics such as the origins of lactation (the rapture and thrall of oxytocin), the sensual (and hormonal) appeal of infants (so luscious you want to eat `em up). I was fascinated by the many ways that mothers seek to secure resources for their children (such as the tradition of godparents, or women's "unnatural" ambitions in the workplace). But reading the tragic chapters in European history of unsuccessful wet-nursing and wholescale infant abandonment while nursing my baby was almost more than I could bear.

                            One theme Hrdy reiterates throughout the book is how mothers throughout history forge workable compromises between infant needs and maternal ambition. She shares her experiences as a mother and scientist, and reflections from other women in the field. I found myself cheering "Yes!" in her final chapters, when she steers the debate of working mothers away from the gender politics of "Is it bad for infants when mothers work?" to the more critical question "How can we ensure that infants are cared for as lovingly and securely as kin?" whether that's by the mother or 'allomothers' [relatives or helpers who care like mothers]. "All early caregivers become the emotional equivalents of kin. Any caretaker is capable of communicating the message infants desperately seek - `You are wanted and will not be set aside'. (p. 509)" While the mother is uniquely equipped to meet that need, with her physical contact, her scent, her milk, she's not the only one who can answer when an infant seeks "the meeting eyes of love." Hrdy has written a passionate and scholarly book that is both an engaging read as well as a profoundly enlightening look into human nature. I cannot recommend this more highly.

                            5 out of 5 stars A must read for any evolutionary psychologist.......2004-02-20

                            So many great little factoids. My favorite topics include family planning (abortion, infanticide), maternal bonding, the adaptiveness of menopause, females in social structure, and lots of other tidbits I wish more authors would cover. The most fascinating thing is that these topics come up in the animal kingdom, not just with us.

                            Only complaint might be that it's a dense read, and doesn't have a nice "backdrop" to organize it like Robert Wright's books (which I highly recommend). For this reason, you might need to read it twice to get everything. The facts themselves are tremendous, however. This book illustrates many more complexities about females that her male contemporaries might gloss over. Hrdy offers balance to anyone who's read other books on the same topic -- albeit great ones -- by male authors. (Come on, they can't help it.)

                            One more interesting thing that Hrdy adds is that science in her field is limited because neither feminists nor conservatives want to explore the evolutionary basis of womanhood. For conservatives, they know they are baby machines. For feminists, all that matters is that women are now free. Hrdy takes issue with both camps.

                            5 out of 5 stars Evolution from a female viewpoint.......2003-11-13

                            This is a fascinating look at evolution with particular reference to the female of the species. Packed with fascinating information about female behaviour through the ages. Descriptions of life among hunter-gatherer groups are particularly interesting. Subjects like infanticide, wetnursing, abandonment of infants, etc are gone into in great detail. I learnt a lot from this book. I particularly enjoyed the splendidly bloodthirsty lullabye from the Napoleonic era printed at the end of this book, my children love it. One small complaint, at one point in this book Ms. Hrdy compares housewives to laboratory rats. Now, I am used to the abuse routinely heaped on housewives, but this is really going a little too far. The big difference between a laboratory rat and a housewife is that I, a housewife, can leave my house any time I like (maybe it's different in America, perhaps housewives are kept locked up there, I don't know), and I frequently do. i have alot more freedom of movement than I would if I were, say, stuck in an office all day long. I quite accept Ms. Hardy' point that children do not have to be cared for full-time by their mothers, but it would be nice if she could refrain from abusing those of us who actually enjoy being full-time carers.

                            5 out of 5 stars An Honest Search For Truth.......2003-07-01

                            Biology has an agenda. Squirrels, whales, and crickets do not have our language facility, thus they do not have self-help books, preachers, or legions of well-meaning advisors. Yet they are born with the genetically provided rules (feelings) that allow them to be successful squirrels, wonderful whales, and competent crickets. We too have genetically provided rules, which sociobiologists and such are trying to discover. This wonderful book is the author's attempt to explain some of the conditions of motherhood, the relations between mothers and babies, and sometimes tough choices mothers have to make. This work is, in my opinion, magnificent.

                            NOTE TO REVIEWERS: If one starts off a review with phrases like "goofy liberal", "ranting conservative", or "clueless libertarian", readers like me read no further. Plus my estimation of the reviewer's intelligence is halved.

                                  Book Description

                                  Intended for beginning graduate students or advanced undergraduates, this text provides a thorough introduction to the phenomena of high-energy physics and the Standard Model of elementary particles. It should thus provide a sufficient introduction to the field for experimeters, as well as sufficient background for theorists to continue with advanced courses on field theory.
                                  The text develops the Standard Model from the bottom up, showing the experimental evidence for each theoretical assumption and emphasizing the most recent results. It includes thorough discussions of electromagnetic interactions (of interest in particle detection), magnetic monopoles, and extensions of the Standard Model.

                                  1 out of 5 stars This book lacks in several aspects. . ........1999-03-08

                                  The book is a disappointment. The text is riddled with errors, and the text is frequently vague about important topics. Equations are presented without derivation, and derivations are often not rigorous or just plain sloppy. The questions at the end of the chapters are either trivially easy, annoyingly vague, or they presupose a knowledge of quantum field theory. (That's ironic because the text is intened to be an introduction!) In any case, I would not recommend this book to any one.
