Judging by the "The Pragmatic Programmer" book on subversion alone, this series of books has got to be absolutely horrible because they literally half-copied the svn redbook and dumbed it down so you pay good money for so very little information which you could all very easily find by spending 10 minutes with the svn redbook.
- elemeno 15y agoYou can't really judge a book solely by the imprint it belongs to or, in the case of "The Pragmatic Programmer", stated. They're all written by different authors so their style and quality will naturally differ. For what it's worth, it's the same imprint that gave us the pickaxe book (Programming Ruby), so perhaps that ought to be a point in it's favour.
