Bookshelf. How do you know if your book is Safari Enabled? Turn your
book over and look for the "Safari Enabled" logo on the bottom right of
the page. If it's there, flip through the last couple pages of your book
until you find directions for accessing your book online.

Have a question about your book? O'Reilly is the only publisher that
offers tech support for books. Send an email to
<bookquestions@oreilly.com> and we'll help you out. Be specific: Include
the book title and page number. It's also a good idea to include the
ISBN so we know what edition you have.
