The difference between Wrox and (let's pick a good company, here) AW is that
when a Wrox book comes out, you have to know the author is good. I've found
that Wrox books appear to have very little editing done to them (grammar and
spelling errors, problems in the samples, nobody telling the author to use
half as many words, etc.). If the author is good and disciplined, they can
overcome many of these things. In general, I avoid Wrox books like the
plague unless I'm _positive_ about the quality of the content before I
purchase the book.
