What is their game? Fast's attention to detail keeps this story lively on repeated rereadings. There are ominous signsbefore they are wed. But why, precisely, these seven and not others? Why not more familiar elements such as oxygen, carbon, gold, and more? And why not five elements, or eight? As the book unfolds, Scerri develops the reasons for the focus. This method works and is reflected by the fact, most programming books have done, and continue to do it this way.This book just tells you one thing and then it's source code is completely different, for example in Chapter 2, it states to "Load some content in the 'Initialize' method" so you type some code in there and then later when you compile and things don't work, you go back and try to figure out why and when you look at the downloaded source code, all of the code you typed in the Initialize method lives somewhere completely different, along with dozens if not hundreds of lines of code not even mentioned in the book??

Yet an objective assessment of the research literature reveals that the majority of these rehabilitative programs have little or no lasting impact on recidivism
