Book trading
Posted: Thu May 14, 2009 10:27 pm
I have two books which I have tried to read several times but for whatever reasons I have not enjoyed enough to persue, one I find really dry and the other uses annoying analogies (ie: duck class inherit from bird class).
Books are:
1. Head First Design Patterns
2. Software requirements patterns (Microsoft press)
Both are in new-like condition as I have never really read them or dragged them around anywhere.
I'm looking at amazon.ca right now and I really want the GoF book on patterns as it uses a WYSIWYG editor as a case study (which is something I have attempted to implement several times -- so that would be really interesting). I also wouldn't mind getting my hands on Refactoring by Fowler. I have been building a refactoring tool for my own PHP applications and it probably wouldn't hurt to familarize myself with the vocabulary set forth by that book.
So if anyone has either of the above books and would care to trade (I'm willing to pay the difference for the price set by Amazon.ca -- if needed -- or shoulder the cost if my book is greater value) let me know.
If there is any place developers can trade books also, I'd be interested in hearing about it. Thanks
Cheers,
Alex
