David's Programming Library
Revised August 15, 2009
For those of you who have been more than curious (and there's quite a few!), I offer the following glimpse into my own personal library. This is no wish list of mine! The listing below contains the titles and ISBN's for the books I have either in the bookshelf behind me, or in the one downstairs. Each of these books is dog-eared to some extent, with some more severe than others. The dates on these range from the early 1980's to just this month, with more titles on the way. They're organized by publication date under the following headings:
Access
C/C++
Databases
General Programming
Internet Explorer
Language-Specific
Microprocessors
Programmable Logic Controllers
Visual Basic
