Subject: Latest books from AW/PHPTR

Hi Linda, just wanted to check in to find out if you might have some
reviewers interested in the following books, hot off the press from
Addison-Wesley/Prentice Hall PTR:

1) "The Art of UNIX Programming" by Eric S. Raymond
In this book, five years in the making, the author encapsulates three
decades of unwritten, hard-won software engineering wisdom. Raymond brings
together for the first time the philosophy, design patterns, tools, culture,
and traditions that make UNIX home to the world's best and most innovative
software, and shows how these are carried forward in Linux and today's
open-source movement. Using examples from leading open-source projects, he
shows UNIX and Linux programmers how to apply this wisdom in building
software that's more elegant, more portable, more reusable, and
longer-lived.

2) "J2EE Security For Servlets, EJBs and Web Services" by Pankaj Kumar.
Kumar covers every significant J2SE and J2EE security mechanism, presenting
practical implementation techniques for the entire J2EE project lifecycle:
analysis, design, development, deployment and operations.

3) "Open Source Network Administration"
In this book, MIT netadmin James M. Kretchmar presents an extraordinary
collection of open source tools for streamlining and improving virtually
every facet of network administration. Regardless of your experience or your
network's size, these flexible tools can help with everything from
management and monitoring to optimization and troubleshooting. Every tool is
described in detail, with easy instructions for retrieval, installation from
source, configuration, and real-world usage.
