[Year 12 SofDev] Software Development: Core Techniques and Principles Ed.2 update!

[Adrian Janson]

Hi Philip,
 
I must apologise - the pdf that is on my website is still from the previous
edition - I will update it shortly!
 
As it is a new edition only, the number of changes are not great.  I have
made numerous corrections and added content (and have taken some content
out).  I am not going to continue to sell the old edition - although I know
that some students may buy this second hand.  I personally feel that the
newest edition is the best option - which I guess I would say having spent
many, many hours revising the content!  The new edition is several pages
longer.  Those who will be purchasing the iBook version will notice the
biggest changes as I have incorporated interactive quizzes, presentations
and many galleries.  I also have an eBook version for the first time.
 
Cheers,
Adrian

HI Adrian, How different is version 2?
I had a look at the pdf  preview of chapter 1 and it is identical to the old
version.

Hi everyone,
 
I few people have been asking me for updates on the text - so here is where
I am up to!  There are a few formats / versions of the text - which I have
listed below:
 
Print version
ISBN: 978-0-9873914-0-7
Price: $70.00 (ex-GST)
 
The print version of the text is basically completed now and will be going
to print very shortly.  It is my aim to have this ready for shipping prior
to the end of the school year - but it will be a tight deadline.  If it is
not ready by then, it will certainly be ready for distribution in early
January.  
 
eBook (pdf) version
ISBN: 978-0-9873914-2-1
Price: $50.00 (ex-GST)*
 
The eBook version will be available to purchase via my web-site very soon
(2-3 weeks).  Students who purchase the print version of the text will
receive a 'coupon' code so that they can purchase the eBook (as well) for a
greatly reduced price.
 
iBook version
ISBN: 978-0-9873914-1-4
Price: $50.00 (ex-GST)
 
The iBook version is also basically completed now and will be available in
2-3 weeks.
 
Combo pack - (SD text purchased with 'Visual Basic.Net for Education')
Price: $90.00 (ex-GST)
 
If you wish your students to also purchase the text 'Visual Basic.Net for
Education', they can purchase it from me in a 'combo' pack for an additional
cost of just $20 (instead of the normal $50).
 
Consignment orders
 
As I have done in previous years, I am very happy to send texts out to you
on consignment to sell to your students when they start the year.  The
advantage of doing this is that you can send back any unsold copies and you
only need to pay for those that you sell.  It also combines the postage
costs into one.
 
I am happy to take pre-orders via my web-site or email.  For those that
haven't responded to my survey - here is the link:

This link is not a commitment to purchase or an ordering system - simply a
way that I can gather information about formats people would like, etc.  
 
Cheers,
Adrian Janson
