desertcart.com: How to Speak Tech: The Non-Techie’s Guide to Key Technology Concepts: 9781484243237: Trivedi, Vinay: Books

Review: MUST READ!! - Changed How Interact With My Clients and Team - I bought this book as it came up on my "Suggested Reading List" and I can tell you, it has taught me more in a shorter amount of time than what I' learned over a span of 3 to 4 years growing up. In high school, I worked as a technician at an Apple Reseller and have taught myself web basics (HTML, CSS, Javascript), but I really wish this book was out when I was growing up. I could gotten up to speed A LOT faster. Trivedi's eloquent yet casual way of explaining complex concepts like databases, APIs, front end frameworks, and more makes it easy for anyone to pick up and read. Technology no longer is in the hands of few. It is now a part of everyone's daily lives and saying up-to-date has never been more important. This book is an easy, quick way to get you up to speed. If you want to get into tech entrepreneurship this book is a must. I am in education space currently and I think it could be value to be used in intro programming courses or S.T.E.M. curriculums. I highly recommend this book!!
Review: Informative, concise, and easy to read - I was searching for an easy to understand book explaining some basic tech/internet concepts, and I came across "How to Speak Tech" in the "Suggested Reading" view. I had an interview with a tech company (non-technical position, of course) a few weeks ago, and had wanted to learn some basics about technology. It definitely helped me be a more competitive candidate during the interview. Upon reading it, I was thoroughly impressed by Trivedi's ability to simplify complex concepts. I haven't read any authors who explained Cloud computing and Databases as well as you did. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an easy to read book to brush up on their tech knowledge!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ My review on the Non-Techie's Guide to Technology Basics in Business
*by A***H on May 16, 2014*

My take on this book could be over simplified as I am (as the book suggests) a complete non-techie. It is the first "technical" book I have read. Contrary to my misgivings about not being able to get through it, I was pleasantly surprised. For those of you who are not familiar with any IT terms viz., CSS, HTML, DBMS, etc., this book demystifies some of the jargon. Helps you understand the complicated business of coding, web development, database management etc. Recommended for novices and beginners
