JavaScript: The Definitive Guide
by David Flanagan
Amazon Price: $31.49
Customer Review: This book not only assists first-time JavaScript programmers, but is an excellent reference for the more experienced developers. The examples are first-rate, and the reference sections are more comprehensive than any I've seen for this language. A MUST if you are a serious JavaScript professional.

by Vanessa L. Williams
Amazon Price: $16.49
Customer Review: Usually Dummies Books are a great way to get into something, and I've been trying to make sense out of Sharepoint administration. Unfortunately this book put me to sleep without clarifying anything.
Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Designer 2007 Step by Step
by Penelope Coventry

by Seth Bates, Tony Smith
Amazon Price: $26.39
Customer Review: There are several books available for SharePoint installers and admins and designers, but there really aren't many out there for end users. This is one of the few, and it does cover most of the important subjects. It has a few shortcomings:
+ The language is not very approachable. Long sentences, tedious writing, and a bit too formal.

Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World
by Joe Armstrong
Amazon Price: $24.39
Customer Review: I made an attempt at working through this book 6 months ago and didn't feel quite comfortable so I dropped it and instead pursued Programming in Haskell. Yesterday I decided to get back into Erlang and found it a complete breeze, powering through the entire book in a few hours.
A lot of things seem to become really easy after working with Haskell, not to say that programming in Hask...

Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007 Administrator's Companion
by Bill English, The Microsoft SharePoint Community Experts
Amazon Price: $37.79
Customer Review: Useful reference and the eBook (pdf) has been invaluable. Unfortunately, the pdf is locked which restricts copy/paste (which would be great for documentation). This booke is not a sit down and read from cover to cover, but a go to book for research/reference.
