Professional Ajax |
Was really busy for the last few days and yes for atleast another week more to come. Managing academics and business interests isn’t an easy job as I thought it was. And then there is this now hebetudinous blog of mine, I want to kick live with newer posts.
Well, everytime I go to Pune, I don’t miss ‘Appa Balwant Chowk’ a street known for 1st hand, 2nd hand and probably even Nth hand books… All in good form and shape as though they were all new and more importantly at some dirt price (only if you know to bargain well).
Ajax has been around for quite some time now. But never got a project that demanded its use. But recently got a development project for a local newspaper website. Thought, a good read on Ajax should be useful. For all the not so common books there is one stop there at Appa Balwant Chowk. ‘Unnati Book House’, I never miss that! I have taken hours to search the books there on the street, but this book stall hasn’t ever disappointed me.
There were some 4-5 books on Ajax that the guy there showed me. Hmm… I was particularly searching for a SAM’s publication one, my favorite series. Wasn’t there :(. So ran through the contents of the ones in front of me. I found a couple of them interesting. But since Ajax being a newer technology… even a 200 page book had an overhead cost. So had to settle for one book.
I was impressed with this book - ‘Professional Ajax’ by Wrox publications. The Indian Edition costed me some Rs 325 odd after discount. Well, its also available at Amazon.
Will read the book the next weekend when I have a little more time for myself. And will definitely come up with a review of it. At first glance, it looks to be the best and most comprehensive book around for learning Ajax.
