Good for knowing what is Fedora all about, but falls behind expectations, February 4, 2009
This review is from: Fedora 9 Linux Desktop Handbook (Paperback)
I had great expectations for this book, when I bought it, and I found out, after reading it, that it falls behind expectations: at some point, it starts to send you to web pages, that most of them are outdated; in addition, it has a lot of mistakes, and repeats paragraphs. It looks to me, that this book was pressed out by the editorial to come out on time or before time, and this could explain so many erratas and the fact that the book is a catalog to resources on the internet, instead of explaining it in much more detail in the book. After all, what is a book about, if it doesn't do what is supposed to do? I hope new books about Fedora are published with more sense and sensibility toward the readers. A bad written catalog that does not cut it. Shame on the writer and shame on the publisher.
