***WHAT WE'RE READING***
"Interconnections"
by Radia Perlman
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201634481/entertainments08
Radia Perlman invented the spanning-tree bridging algorithm
and her wide-ranging experience with network protocols will
help any network programmer or administrator understand how
the Internet and intranets work. In the second edition of
"Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches and
Internetworking Protocols", she explains hundreds of details
about getting computers--and networks of computers--to talk
to one another smoothly, accurately and efficiently.

"Fireworks 2 Bible"
by Joseph W. Lowery
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0764533347/entertainments08
Macromedia Fireworks 2 is one of the most flexible graphics
design and manipulation programs for the Web and the "Fireworks
2 Bible" is a definitive reference for the product. While
focusing on Fireworks, it also covers the key technical aspects
of dishing up graphics on the Net and it comes with trial
versions of Fireworks 2, Flash 4, Dreamweaver 2 and other
utilities on CD-ROM. Whether you're new to the graphics game
or curious about the program, this is a wise investment.

"Weaving the Web"
by Tim Berners-Lee
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0752820907/entertainments08
You wouldn't be reading this if it weren't for the author of
this book. A decade ago, visionary Oxford-trained computer
consultant Tim Berners-Lee created a system to link
information stored on computers. He called it the World Wide
Web and "Weaving the Web" is the story of how he did it.


***AN ARTICLE ABOUT LEGO MINDSTORMS***
Why all the buzz about LEGO Mindstorms? It's just a fancy
toy, right? Not so, writes "The Unofficial Guide to Lego
Mindstorms" author Jonathan Knudsen in an exclusive article
for Amazon.co.uk. Knudsen explains how, with a LEGO Mindstorms
Robotics Invention System in hand, budding robotics' enthusiasts
of all ages can grasp the fundamentals--and much more.

***AN INTERVIEW WITH "ILLIAD"***
The comic strip that's become to the Open Source world what
Dilbert is to the swarming hives of Windows cubicles,
Illiad's "User Friendly" has gone between covers for the
first time. Its creator is famously shy but, safe behind his
computer screen, he agreed to answer Amazon.co.uk's
questions about hard-core geeks, the world of ISPs--and why
he is called Illiad.
