From: "David A. Black" Date: 2009-09-08T04:22:11+09:00 Subject: [ADV] 1/2 price print books @ Manning, today only Hi -- Today only, Manning is giving 50% off print books, if you use the code pop0907 when you check out. Manning books include "The Well-Grounded Rubyist" (by me) and "Ruby in Practice" (Jeremy McAnally et al.). "The Well-Grounded Rubyist" is for programmers who are new to Ruby, and also for people who have done some work with Ruby (possibly via Rails, but not necessarily) and want a solid foundation in the language and how it works. "Ruby in Practice" gives you practical advice and techiques to use in a wide range of application areas: testing, databases, text processing, and more. Also, there's a quiz going on at Manning with daily prizes: http://www.manning.com/popquiz/ David P.S. I'm writing this on my own initiative, not as a Manning representative (which I'm not), and I can't be held responsible if any of the offers change. -- David A.
