The #1 New York Times bestseller and a USAToday bestsellerA timely, crucial, and empowering exploration of racism--and antiracism--in America This is NOT a history book.
This is a book about the here and now.
A book to help us better understand why we are where we are.
A book about race. The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited. Through a gripping, fast-paced, and energizing narrative written by beloved award-winner Jason Reynolds, this book shines a light on the many insidious forms of racist ideas--and on ways readers can identify and stamp out racist thoughts in their daily lives.

Very useful book on the latest Ubuntu distro
Format: Paperback
Disclaimer: Longtime follower and subscriber to Jay LaCroix’s YouTube site, Learn Linux
TV.
Several high quality authors (Jang, van Vugt, and Ghori the most well known) have been
introducing new comers looking for more in-depth guides to Linux to the Red Hat world
through their RHCSA Study Guides. The same cannot be said for Ubuntu. While books do
exist for Ubuntu, they are too general in this reviewers opinion. A noted exception is
Matthew Helmke. The other is Jay LaCroix.
Mastering Ubuntu Server, 4th Edition by Jay LaCroix addresses Canonical’s latest Ubuntu
release, 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish). Mr. LaCroix’s book follows the same outline as the
RHCSA books of installation, user management, package management, navigating the file
system through the terminal, command-line usage, up to and including storage and
networking. These chapters lay a solid foundation for the rest of the book, and all but one
chapter ends with a section for further viewing or reading which either point to Mr.
LaCroix’s well produced videos on his YouTube channel, Ubuntu’s wiki, or to one of
several informative websites. The YouTube videos are a good complement to the book,
and also raise the bar for what we as readers should expect from other authors and
publishers.
The last part of the book was my favorite. Where as the RHCSA books are confined to the
scope of the test they are aimed at, Mastering Ubuntu Server has no restrictions. Chapters
covering the installation of databases (MariaDB), web servers (both Apache and Nginx),
virtualization (QEMU/KVM), containerization (LXD and Docker), Ansible, AWS, and
Terraform along with their corresponding videos (except for Terraform) create a
comprehensive learning platform. Having worked through some of these chapters along
with the videos, one does get up to speed much quicker in understanding while adding a
new skill to their skillset. This is important in a competitive job market.
I would recommend Mastering Ubuntu Server, 4 th Edition highly to anyone wanting
something current for the 22.04 LTS distribution. Having said that, I do have some
admittedly subjective criticisms.
In the chapter on storage, the fdisk command is introduced for formatting and partitioning
disks. In an industry where it is becoming less likely to install a hard drive of 2TB or less
and manufacturers have 20TB hard drives in their product line, why not also introduce the
gdisk command.
My other criticism is directed at the virtualization chapter and its use of Virtual Machine
Manager for KVM. I got my start working with KVM through the Virtual Machine Manager
as well, but on the advice of a Systems Engineer I knew, transitioned to creating,
configuring and managing all my VMs through the command-line only. I wished that the
author pushed more in that direction. As I said, subjective opinions, and minor overall, for a
well written book by Jay LaCroix.

I should have looked somewhere else.
Format: Paperback
Not very helpful. I wanted a book that would help guide me through setting up a web server. There should have been a more complete step by step guide comparing traditional methods with newer updated methods.

Organized well. You can read it section by section. Fantastic information. Clearly presented.
I like this book better than "what to expect" because this one does a better job of what you'll ACTUALLY expect versus telling you the throngs of horrible things that could happen to you or your baby. I'd rather be informed than mentally prodded with scary information. On one hand, it's good to know what could happen, so the other books you've probably already ordered are good to skim through, but this book I recommend reading all the way through. Easy to read, you'll actually have TIME to read it because you can read the age your baby is instead of a book that's all mixed up and organized by diseases and threats. Clear photos and explanations and tips on how to make your life and baby's life easier and better. I've understood my baby's needs better because of this book. I feel really glad I got it because it was the only book that really helped my daily life with my newborn.

we loved this well-illustrated book
As first-time parents, we loved this well-illustrated book, recommended it to one couple, and recently ordered another for an expecting couple in our family. Rather than grouping content by topic, the book is ordered chronologically, starting with Day 1 and progressing throughout the first year. Don't expect to read straight through; there are lots of pictures, sidebars, notes, etc. This makes it easier to find and retain relevant information (as opposed to reading a 100-page section on "Diet and Nutrition"). Provides a thorough treatment of most of the common issues, fun discoveries and concerns you encounter as a new parent.
