4.0 out of 5 stars Good info -- about due for an update., May 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Databases on the Web: Designing and Programming for Network Access (Paperback)
My background -- I'm a senior software engineer, but haven't done much "web-work".

I'm in the planning stages of a large commercial website that will be mostly data-driven so I'm "consuming" as many [good] books related to this subject as I can.

I've found this book to be helpful. It contains many good tips, and a good overview of the different technologies that might be used to build a data-driven website -- along with the hows, whys, advantages, and disadvantages of each technology.

It's perfect for someone trying to design a data-driven site, or add (or improve) database capabilities to an existing site. This book probably isn't the ONLY book you'll need to put together a full-blown data-driven site -- but it'll get you headed down the right path, and you'll come out of the book with a good idea of what other (more specific) books you need (and don't need).

The one negative for me with this book is the number of typographical and grammatical errors that exist throughout the book. This type of thing is quite distracting to me -- and I have to say the number of errors of this nature far exceed that of any other technical book I've bought from a bookstore.

Fortunately, the technical content seems pretty sound.

The best advice I can give the author for "next time" is to find a good editor (if you had an editor last time, get a different one). Having been an author myself, I know the value of a top-notch post-draft review process.
