Praise for Head First Ajax

“Ajax is more than just revisiting existing technologies, making some small changes to your web application and then declaring it Ajax-enabled. Rebecca M. Riordan walks you through all of the steps of building an Ajax application in Head First Ajax, and shows you that Ajax is more than ‘that little asynchronous part’, but a better approach to web design all together.”

Anthony T. Holdener III, author of “Ajax: The Definitive Guide”

“You don’t just read Head First books, you *do* Head First books. And it makes all the difference.”

Pauline McNamara, Techno-pedagogical Consultant for university eLearning projects, Switzerland

“The author does an excellent job teaching the various aspects of Ajax, bringing back previous lessons without being repetitive and introducing common problems in a way that helps readers discover the problems themselves. In areas where there still isn’t a definitive practice, the reader is exposed to all the options and encouraged to make up his or her own mind.”

Elaine Nelson, Website Designer

“Behind the Ajax eight ball? Get out of the shadows with this book. You’ll wrap your mind around the core concepts, and have some fun in the process.”

Bear Bibeault, Web Applications Architect
