Interestingly the title _Learning Cocoa_ (colophon says the animal is an Irish Setter, as is the cover of _Cocoa in a Nutshell_) is missing. https://learning.oreilly.com/library/view/learning-cocoa/059...

I don't see my book listed there. https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/tragic-design/978149192...

Is this specific to programming topics?

He does not give an exhaustive list, rather the head of a couple of lists, and a couple of lists matching on one attribute or another. The animal on your cover looks like a Portuguese man of war, which would not match the "ama" search on animal, and of course your title does not include Perl.

Huh, why are the images gifs?

gif is lossless for images with < 256 colors and good for sharp-edged art according to this.

That would be my guess.

Thanks!

I love O'Reilly's animals. Especially their original tarsier.
