1.		Antenna Theory: Analysis and Design, 2nd Edition from Wiley Price: $270.42 Customer Review: The 'text' of this 'book' is a collection of PowerPoint slides with nearly no details on to how to understand the equations or diagrams. To me its for the trash -- a complete waste of money and time. I do not speak here to the MATLAB or FORTARN programs provided here.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Ew 101: A First Course in Electronic Warfare (Artech House Radar Library) from Artech House Publishers Price: $85.00 Customer Review: This book is the perfect introduction.

3.		Critical Chain Project Management (Artech House Professional Development Library) from Artech House Publishers Customer Review: Overall a good book. His positions on agile processes should be disregarded, as they fail to address changing requirements. The author suggests that on HIS projects, requirements don't change. Ridiculous. The technique is definitely worth exploring, even if you are not a fan of the PMBOK... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Radar Handbook, Third Edition from McGraw-Hill Professional Price: $94.95 Customer Review: I've owned Skolnik's "Radar Handbook" 2nd ed. for several years, and there are many copies of the 1st ed. in the area.

20.		Under the Radar: Talking to Today's Cynical Consumer from Wiley Price: $6.40 Customer Review: If I had to write a college paper to fill 200 pages about how smart I was this book is exactly what I would probably write.
