41 Appendix C. Reader Votes (Books, Audiotapes, and Seminars)
The question frequently comes up about "What do people think of product X?"
This appendix will try to create a fast way of viewing the general opinion.
Obviously no product can be summarized with a single number and hopefully this
won't discourage questions and discussion, just provide a more concise way of
capturing the general view. You can vote for a book, audiotape, seminar that
you have experience with by sending me a list with your vote. The easiest way
is to just cut out the list below and put your vote out to the side. If you
are posting a book review, including a rating on a scale of 1-10 and I'll add
it to this list automatically. So far, this list just includes things I have
read or that I could think of right off the top of my head. I'll keep adding
to the list based on your feedback (all votes so far are mine - so much for
anonymity).
