My Current Book List or Technical Library!!

Just a list of books I have in my technical collection. I would suggest that you buy an electronic book reader. The reason is quite simple, some of these books are bulky and if you need a collection in your contract placement, you generally wont get a locker or storage space and the full timers will complain about your books taking up too much desk room...trust me! Anyway, I bought the Kindle when it first came out and it took about a year for manuals to become available. As a result I hardly used my Kindle initially, now there is a good flow of manuals to select from and generally books published on Kindle include links to download companion CDs that are provided with the hard copy. Amazon also give you the Kindle app, this is terrific, you can effectively have your ebooks synchronised across a PC, Phone, Phablet and Tablet. As Android devices grow the flow of tech manuals on Google Play will grow too, same said for the Apple Store for Ipads. Google Play Book Store will synchronise between your PC and Android devices. Anyway it's all Just my humble opinion. One last thing...if you are following my links to buy a book then double check for newer versions...cheers

PS...I've not used Google Play for tech manuals yet that's why there are no book links there..I fully intend to use as many resources as I can to get the tech data I need...I encourage you to do the same...my ebook readers are a Kindle 3g with Keyboard (Love it!!) and a Samsung Note (great screen fairly easy to read websites off of but not read a full book off it yet, picture and movie quality superb...it's just the dual core one...but heyho it was the one the shop had!! And I love it)
