No nonsense introduction and reference

No Starch stands for no-nonsense with the book. The first part of the book is seven short chapters that introduce the API, and two more on integration and driver support. The second part of the book is a well designed reference section that isn't as graphically well presented as an O'Reilly book, but is as well organized.

The first seven chapters which walk you through the API from basic to advanced use are very well written. The code fragments are small and the illustrations are sparse but used effectively.

This is a solid piece of work. Highly recommended.
