2.0 out of 5 stars Only a Collection of Examples, December 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: On Macintosh(R) Programming: Advanced Techniques (Paperback)
This is not a book that will teach you very much about programming or about the Macintosh. It talks about some low-level Mac architecture (without much detail or authority), the history of the Macintosh, but mostly it presents bunch of almost unrelated programming examples in C, Pascal, and assembly. These examples range from sorting to celestial mechanics. But they are only code examples, with no authoritative discussion at all. Some of the examples are interesting for their numerical analysis value, but teach nothing about Macintosh programming or basic mathematical concepts. Many of the best examples were not even written by the author. I can't highly recommend this book.
