I have been starting reading "A Practical Introduction to Data Structures and
Algorithm Analysis". This is a text book that I bought at university,
attempted to read, managed about 10 pages then put it away because it was
boring me to death. <BR><BR>Being a more experienced and mature programmer I
thought it was about time I brushed up on my programming fundamentals and give
the book another try. I have managed to read around 100 pages of the book so
far and am finding it quite interesting. <BR><BR>I have come to the conclusion
that either:<BR><BR>A. being older and wiser I can now appreciate the
book more<BR><BR>or <BR><BR>B. I'm a lot more boring than I used to
be.<BR><BR>Either way I have decided that I am going to read more "tech"
books, can any of you guys suggest some that I might enjoy? <BR><BR>I feel I
should probably read at least one on databases as I missed most database
lectures at uni as they clashed with Tai Chi.<BR><BR>On the subject of general
security I remember "Secrets and Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World"
by Bruce Schneier being quite entertaining so will recommend this.
