But there is a bit of a difference between a book, such as Bruce's, and the "manuals" such as the online documentation. For a published book on software to be successful, a lot of the print is used to explain the syntax and concepts and give examples. A lot of time manuals are too cold.. Good for reference, but not always good for reading. I never read any of the online doc from start to finish. I go to the points and read what I need to for the monument.. Bruce's I read from cover to cover, so to say. It could be just me, but the online docs are more references... books like Bruce's do more to teach.
