Colophon

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects.

The animal on the cover of Programming Windows Presentation Foundation is a kudu. Not to be confused with kudzu, a purple-flowered vine indigenous to East Asia, the kudu, native to East Africa, comprises 2 of the 90 species of antelope: Lesser Kudu and Greater Kudu. Both species have coats of a brownish hue, adorned with white stripes. Kudu males are easily distinguished from their distaff counterparts by their twisted horns, whose myriad traditional applications among African cultures include serving as musical instruments, honey receptacles, and ritual symbols of male potency.
