    I find this odd... though perhaps it's just due to the field I work in (IT, specifically Linux engineering.) I would love to be given books related to my field. I would never assume I know all there is to know.

    You might feel differently if the book was "Networking for Dummies."

    We could resurrect the thread, but do note that it only came to the top just now because a spammer posted on it!

    I've found that the books I've given to teachers and staff are welcomed.
