This is an incredibly intuitive book for understanding this incredibly useful and innovative software design approach. I especially liked the hands-on examples throughout the book, including the reference to the GIPF project! :)

THIS IS A SMART BOOK. MR.STEINBURG AND MR.PALMER have done a good JOB syergizing the various aspectects of computatating using XP. I like the overview in chapters 1 and 2. The books later chapter are also delicous to read, because they have swarming appproches.

 Seller is MIASep 01, 2010
By jknisley
I ordered this book over a week ago (August 23) and as of today (August 31) is still has not been shipped. Furthermore, contacting this seller has not been possible because all attempts result in an auto-response that their inbox is full.
I will consider updating this if/when the seller ever ships my book, but until then I'm in a bind. My class is now starting and I need to start reading this book, but I can't yet cancel this order through Amazon because the full duration has not been reached, and so if I order this from someone else and then this seller does miraculously ship the book as well, I will end up paying double and have to turn around and resell one, possible taking a loss and incurring multiple shipping charges.
I've ordered many items from Amazon.com before, and this is the first unresponsive seller that I have come across. I would not do business with them again.
