Programming Domino 4.6 Java : Groupware for the Internet Book

I think that it is very hard to strike the right balance with a book that is summarizing the classic myths of Greece--this book has some great excerpts from the original sources (which were written long after the myths were created, but the earliest versions that exist today--I saw a scroll that was salvaged from Hercaleneum, and was amazed that they were able to figure out anything at all from it...). The downside is that the telling of the stories is more pedantic than entertaining, and I think that despite it being a textbook, these stories ahve a dramatic quality that lends them to that approach. It was not dreadful as a text (and the on-line learning modules and quizzes are outstanding) but one could hope for better.
