***WHAT WE'RE READING***
"UML Distilled"
by Martin Fowler amd Kendall Scott
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/020165783X/entertainments08
Too busy to keep up with new innovations in software
engineering? Then check out "UML Distilled, Second Edition".
Arguably the best resource for quick, no-nonsense explanations
of using UML, Martin Fowler's updated guide introduces the
latest UML v. 1.3 standard and includes reworked coverage of
use cases, activity diagrams and collaborations.

"Beginning Linux"
by Neil Matthew and Richard Stones
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1861002971/entertainments08
There are dozens of books about installing and using Linux,
but if you really want to get up to speed try "Beginning Linux,
Second Edition". Like all Wrox guides it's written by programmers
for programmers and covers not only Linux fundamentals but
advanced topics like processes, pipes, semaphores and, of
course, Internet programming issues. This is a superb resource
for anyone programming in the Linux environment.

"EXtreme Programming EXplained"
by Kent Beck
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201616416/entertainments08
Managers and programmers looking for a better way to build
software won't want to miss "EXtreme Programming EXplained".
It's a guide to the philosophy and practice of the author's
Extreme Programming (XP) methodology, where programmers work
in pairs and testing is part of the coding process. It may
change the way you work.


***AN INTERVIEW WITH PETER BENTLEY***
Award-winning UCL computer scientist Peter Bentley, editor of
"Evolutionary Design by Computers", explains to Amazon.co.uk
how evolutionary computing can be used to design things from
race cars to security systems and why it's the way of the future.

titles on the subject and recommends a few of the best.
