Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects
The animal on the cover of J2ME in a Nutshell is a galago Galagos are prosimian primates,
"pre-monkeys" that existed before monkeys, apes, and humans evolved These small (10-35
cm long, not including their tail, which ranges from 20 to nearly 50 cm long), nocturnal animals live in Africa, spending much of their time in trees and eating mostly bugs, fruit, and the occasional small bird Their big ears, featured prominently on the cover, can be bent almost completely back, either one at a time or both together, something the galagos apparently like to do quite frequently
