Long term customer of books about software I've been a customer of Apress for many years. The transactions can be easily completed using the web site. I usually like to look through the Table of Contents of a book and, if possible, read about 10 pages of the book to get a feel of whether the book topic interests me and if I like the author's writing style. Over the years, Apress has made this more difficult. In particular, I compare this to the Manning site - which I find to be even more helpful. I still buy an occasional book at Apress and I am generally satisfied with those purchases.

A press has a broad library and a team… A press has a broad library and a team of author practitioners. Many books are published soon after a technology gets some mindshare. At $99 a year, the subscription is an EXCELLENT VALUE!

An excellent source of knowledge An excellent source of knowledge! There is an exceptional selection of current topic software titles for me to choose from. The authors/editing are very good in their ability to convey complex subjects! I cannot say enough good about apress.com!

Something not quite right I've purchased books from a lot of sites, and many times from APress, but there was a book that I had in my cart, and every time I tried to buy it it said I couldn't, no explanation, it was in my cart, but then bounced out at the point where I wanted to complete the purchase. I managed to buy another book, so it wasn't the site having issues (broadly).
