Just what I was looking for!

Over the years, I've found it increasingly difficult to buy technology related books simply because of the speed in which they become obsolete. So now I look at each book as not only an instructional tome, but whether or not it will be useful 6 months down the road as a reference. This book (like many of O'Reilly's titles) has easily earned a place in my library.

Mr. Bornstein's method of writing seems to fit very well with the way I learn, and his coverage of the subject matter makes this book a great resource when I'm trying to remember the exact syntax of a specific method call.
