Rezensionen
"Das Buch ist eine echte Hilfe. Für Einsteiger und Forgeschrittene. Auch fortgeschrittene Themen kommen in dem Buch nicht zu kurz, es gibt hier sehr schöne Beispiele für anspruchsvolle Anwendungen der Search Patterns. Man kann das Buch mit Einschränkungen auch blutigen Anfängern empfehlen, wer die Herausforderung sucht, wird sicher auch als Einsteiger viel Freude mit dem Buch haben, die unzähligen Beispiele stellen eine gute Hilfestellung dar. Meine persönliche Erfahrung zeigt mir, dass ich regelmäßig während meiner Arbeit immer wieder auf das Buch zurückgreife um mir Anregungen zu holen und mein Wissen zu vertiefen.

Ein Kompliment an die beiden Autoren, Peter Morville und Jeff Callender: Das Buch ist ein richtig toller Wurf.

Fazit - Ein Buch das auf keinem Arbeitsplatz fehlen sollte! Das Ding ist eine hervorragende Einführung zum Theama - und sollte auf jeden Schreibtisch. Es ist ein Buch, das kaum Fragen offen lässt. Es ist praktisch alles drin, was derzeit in Sachen Search Patterns relevant ist.

Eine unbedingte Kaufempfehlung von mir." -- php-nuke.de, Juni 2010
