Reader Reviews
Holly smokes!!!! I have never owned such a thin book with so much white space on the 199 pages that are there. I would estimate removing all the white space would bring this book down to about 120 to 150 pages. This book does not do what I had hoped for. I posted in my blog that I was hoping for insight that did not already exist, and that is not the case. This book is a high level overview of the CAB and SCSF. The material that is there is good. The problem is there just isn't very much material, and what is there is not in depth. I was nervous about the description of the book because it described the book as a learning workshop style of writing, but ordered it because it was written by David S. Platt. He has written some good books in the past. I gave this book 2 stars out of 5 because if you don't want to weed through all the help documentation on the CAB and the SCSF, this book will give you a nice overview of what is available. But to get down and dirty you will need to refer to the help documentation. This book should have been a free download labeled "CAB and the SCSF Hands on Lab". Of course they would have to complete the code samples, which currently are labeled under construction on the author's book download site.
