- [amazon_link id=“0981678017” target=“_blank” ]The Busy Coder’s Guide to Advanced Android Development[/amazon_link]. Book for a quick start on Android development, full of examples and straight to the point, it’s also worth mentioning for their innovative Books-as-a-Subscription service (BaaS) that provides updates and new titles for $40 per year.
- [amazon_link id=“0470697164” target=“_blank” ]LTE, The UMTS Long Term Evolution: From Theory to Practice[/amazon_link]. An extensive, comprehensive and in-depth tour-de-force on the LTE standard by some of the contributors of its standardization. An invaluable tool for anyone LTE-related, it will be the most authoritative source for the years to come: it has reminded me the [amazon_link id=“0201633469” target=“_blank” ]TCP/IP Illustrated series[/amazon_link] while reading it. The best: the parts describing the physical layer (OFDM and MIMO), the most innovative part of the standard and its real lifeblood. Every standard should have a book like this one written for it.
- [amazon_link id=“1598220616” target=“_blank” ]The Rootkit Arsenal: Escape and Evasion in the Dark Corners of the System[/amazon_link]. In the last decade, there has been an explosion of computer security related books. From time a time, a title really stands up from the rest, and this must be it for 2009: Stuxnet developers should have read this one before coding their second-rate worm. Caveat: no source code available for download.
