 Amazon.co.uk: Pro Spring: From Professional to Expert: Books
Written by Spring insiders Rob Harrop and Jan Machacek, it is the only book endorsed by Rod Johnson, Founder of the Spring Framework.
The one major failing I found was that the book failed to discuss why one would want to use Spring in the first place - much was made of the AOP and IOP paradigms, for instance, but no real effort was made to demonstrate the (debateable) advantages that they convey in comparison to conventional techniques.
The sample application developed in the book is a "Spring Blog"; all the code is clear and well explained, and there are several other example all throughout the book.

 KidScreen Magazine - Frankfurt Book Fair preview
Like the Bologna Children's Book Fair, which hits in spring, Frankfurt follows soon after a MIP-TV market, "so the foreign publishing divisions of multimedia corporations are more likely to be on the look-out for titles that have media tie-ins," says Roder.
As for books unaffiliated with TV, Rosen says she will also be pushing a new title from kids publishing institution Rosemary Wells called Emily's First 100 Days of School, which Hyperion plans to release in spring 2000.
Generally, "we use Frankfurt as the place to catch up and try to sell foreign publishers on the titles that we introduced at Bologna in the spring," says Peggy Intrator, VP and director of foreign rights at Scholastic Publishing.

 Confucius
In any case, by most traditional accounts, Confucius returned to Lu in 484 BCE and spent the remainder of his life teaching, putting in order the Book of Songs, the Book of Documents, and other ancient classics, as well as editing the Spring and Autumn Annals, the court chronicle of Lu.
Several of these episodes, as preserved in the Records of the Grand Historian, appear to be little more than prose retellings of songs found in the ancient Chinese Book of Songs, Confucius' life is thus rendered a re-enactment of the suffering and alienation of the personas of the poems.

 Rachel Carson and Silent Spring
Furthermore, Silent Spring was well documented with 55 pages of references and included a list of scientific experts that had reviewed her book (Lear 1997).
It was not too long after Silent Spring was in print that the public's awareness of the dangers associated with pesticide use impelled them to began taking steps to limit the use of these chemicals in their communities.
In fact, many argue that Silent Spring was instrumental in launching the American and global environmental movements as well as the notion that we possess a fundamental right to a clean environment.

 Reason
Rereading Silent Spring reminds one that the book’s effectiveness was due mainly to Carson’s passionate, poetic language describing the alleged horrors that modern synthetic chemicals visit upon defenseless nature and hapless humanity.
Carson was moved to write Silent Spring by her increasing concern about the effects of pesticides on wildlife.
The book did point to problems that had not been adequately addressed, such as the effects of DDT on some wildlife.
