Customer Reviews

Absolutely the most readable book for the computer novice!

Understanding Computers: Today and Tomorrow is divided into chapters according to the content of the computer area that is covered (Net, software, living{choosing a system, ethics of use}, hardware, and more). The illustrations, in many cases, are actual computer screens. A history of computers is included. This is an easy to understand book for all ages and teaches the basics of computers, not just one individual program or platform. Will demistify computerspeak for the beginner and intermediate user.
