Read any good books lately?

Hi designers,
I don't have much of a book budget so I want to get one that I can actually use.
I was thinking about something related to aspectJ. My friends doing their graduate degreees are like.. aspect this, pointcut there, and i'm like.. huh?
but what would you recommend? No J2EE books please. I really liked the anti patterns book. I figure the people lurking in the Patterns and OO forum would be the best place to ask about software development books. I would also be up for something about 'testing'... as I know how to make unit tests but i'm having trouble testing our GUI... those things are hard to test. Thanks!

hard to test. Thanks!HttpUnit for testing, naturally, http.
I was in the book store last week and several cover junit and at least one covers other frameworks like nunit. I do not recall any that covered HttpUnit though.

  • Made The Switch!  Any Good Books To Help A PC Vet?

    Anyone know of any good books to read up on to get used to the Mac? Ive been a pc guy forever and would like a "guide" to ease me into the Mac lifestyle.

    Yes I would recommend getting Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard: Peachpit Learning Series (Paperback)
    by Robin Williams. Amazon is currently selling it and I'm sure you can find it on e Bay too. The link to Amazon is here.
    Also the links that were provided are excellent and a great starting place.
    I bought her Leopard book a couple of years ago and found it invaluable when I was making the switch.

  • Can anyone recommend any good books on leaning actionscript for flash?

    Can anyone recommend any good books on leaning actionscript
    for flash?
    Intermediate level
    I have been using flash for about 2 years more as a hobby
    than anything else, some websites etc but now I realise I am going
    to need to learn more actionscripting to do what I want, I have
    come to terms with the simple stuff like goto – basic
    variables – load mov – enough to programme up website
    navigation.
    I ideally want to learn more about the dynamic side of flash,
    mostly for designing user interfaces and websites etc
    I’m after a book that doesn’t get too heavy too
    fast yet I’m a little past the more basic functions
    Any thoughts?
    Cheers

  • Read any good Mac books?

    Can someone recommend a good book on Mac use? My 90 day warranty is about to expire and I don't want to keep bothering people on the discussion forum with basic questions. For example, they just turned me on to doing p-ram resets which was very useful and assume there are many similar bits that I should know.

    David Pogue's Mac OS X: The Missing Manual is a treasure trove, you should definitely read that one.
