CD-ROM Book
At the urging of Dr. Roger Hutchison, I'm putting in this shameless plug for
the book TECHNOLOGY EDGE: GUIDE TO CD-ROM, published by New Riders Publishing,
and written by Dana Parker and Bob Starrett. This book has been called "the
worthy successor to the Brady Guide", in Rich Bowers' review on this forum. It
is a comprehensive, easily understood guide to every aspect of CD-ROM, from
installing a drive, choosing titles, and producing your own disc, to
alternative formats, practical applications of CD-ROM technology, and the
future of CD-ROM. Many of the questions asked in the CD-ROM forum are answered
in this book. GUIDE TO CD-ROM is the best-selling CD-ROM book on the market –
and the best-selling CD-ROM book ever. It is available at trade bookstores such
as Waldenbooks and B. Dalton's, at Software Etc., Frye's, and other stores. If
they don't have it, they can order it for you. It has sold out in Silicon
Valley several times since it was published in Decemeber 1992.
