Best book for “off-line” (train, bus) reading
Hi gurus, what is the best computer related (coding, math, linux, OS, algorithm, graphs, logic, etc.) book for "off-line" reading, I mean situation when you have not access to computer and you want to learn some theory that you can practice later. I think those kind of book should have some of those features:
Some kind of quizzes after each topic Great visualization and explaination of problem Logic exercises that you can practice (using pen) Presenting problem in several point of views Practical examples Great theoretic background that you can leverage immediately after grabbing computer |

Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management
you didn't tell us whether you are expert in linux or not in this case I suggest: Linux Bible also The Linux Command Line: A Complete Introduction just tell us your level of expertise and will help you |
The O'Reilly books have always been good, I have read ~ 30 of them and only seen one or two stale ones (they are always sure to squeeze in a little sarcasm). Be wary around a few of there books, some of them can get a little dated.

I sometimes lay my hand on The Design Of UNIX OS off-line.
I have an old hard copy. Just my 1 cent. Regards. |
Without a computer; Learn to Program, by Chris Pine and Best of Ruby Quiz - O'Reilly Media plus lots of magazines like www.linuxuser.co.uk/.
Your title could have used more info ;) but plus... Recommend learning software (e.g.) also videos like CBT Nuggets(VLC can speed video and or audio up or slow it down for more complex ideas). ✌ |
