The White Guy humorously turns racial politics on its head, while delivering a subtle message about tolerance.. So why not talk about it the only way we can, this side of warfare via humor? In The White Guy, Stephen Hunt tries to come to grips with his whiteness in order to continue to rule the world, amass the bulk of its wealth, and generally dominate things as his people have done for the past 2,000 years, give or take a few odd moments like the rise of Attila the Hun, the rule of the 7th-century Caliphate, or the '70s. Let's face it: Everyone’s a little bit racist. Then again, if you’re not a white guy, this is the ultimate insider's guide to the minds of the men responsible for everything that's wrong with the world or your life: apartheid, colonialism, ethnic cleansing, the glass ceiling, patriarchy, serial killing, NASCAR, K-tel® Records, even the theft of rock n’ rollHe talks about having an identity crisis in his 20s when a successful lawyer girlfriend out-earned him, and pinpoints his increasing interest in his lawn as a true sign of his aging white man-ness."

It is a must for any family library. In that regard, I feel cheated because there is nothing in the book that will help any person other than a novice become a better Oracle database programmer, but even then, there exists better titles from which a novice can learn from.Specifically, the book has little, if any, content that would be of interest to any person other than the most inexperienced computer programmer, since its content is restricted to common sense issues that should already be well understood by any person who has any programming experience whatsoever.The author has nothing worthwhile to say, but instead just rambles on and on, such that I must now question the author's motive for writing the book in the first place because he seems to be without purpose.For both beginners and experienced Oracle programmers alike, your money would be better spent buying other Oracle books because there are indeed other Oracle books available that are definitely worth buying, but Oracle Design is not one of them.. Still, the technologies and services Mitchell describes as the conduits that would shape the space of the Internet didn't really pan out. He skims like USA Today.
