Literature

Book recommendations and references

I do not consider every book, article, or Web site cited in my blog a ‘must-have’ or ‘must-see’. However, truly recommended literature is marked with an amazon icon [ Book recommendation / advertisement: Buy this book at amazon.com/.co.uk/.de! ], accompanying each reference in an article. Such an icon directly links to a corresponding offer at amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, or amazon.de.

Buying a book directly through my recommendation will pay me a small commission on your purchase that allows me to continue my studies on writing for the Web. In return, you may again profit from my findings.

Thanks!
