> ***C Pocket Reference
> Ideal as an introduction for beginners and a quick reference for

> reference to the standard library.
> http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/cpr/

>
>
> ***Designing Embedded Hardware
> "Designing Embedded Hardware" is the most in-depth, practical, and
> up-to-date guide to building your own embedded computer systems.
> Whether you're working on cell phones, cars, handheld organizers, or
> refrigerators, this book provides software and hardware engineers with
> the necessary conceptual and design building blocks to understand the
> architectures of embedded systems. Steering between the practical and
> the philosophical, the book enables you to both create your own devices
> and gadgets and customize and extend off-the-shelf systems.
> http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dbhardware/
>
> Chapter 6, "The AVR Microcontroller," is available online:
> http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dbhardware/chapter/index.html
>
>
> ***Digital Photography Pocket Guide
> This book gives you the tools and the knowledge to take the kind of
> pictures you've always wanted. Consider it your quick-reference photo
> mentor that explains each of the camera's components, shows you what
> they do, then helps you choose the right settings to accomplish your
> goal. When you want to ask an expert, "How can I get that picture?"
> simply pull this handy guide out of your camera bag or back pocket, and
> you'll find the answer quickly.

> ***Programming Jakarta Struts
> As popular as the Struts framework for building web applications with
> Servlets and JSPs is becoming, the online documentation is inadequate.
> This book takes a real-world, "this is how to do it" approach to
> developing complex enterprise applications using Struts. The focus on
> the 1.1 version of the framework makes this the most up-to-date book
> available on the subject, covering topics such as installation and
> configuration, JSP and Jakarta Tag Libraries, and internationalization
> and localization code.
> http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/jakarta/
>
> Chapter 14, "Using Tiles," is available online:
