How to Use Computers

I have used this book as text for a Basic Computer class that I have taught three times for adult students. I have used it both as a preparatory refresher text for myself and also have recommended it for my students. They were very satisfied with it also. The best part of this book is that it gets down to the basic level and covers computers and everything concerned with computers on a level that everyone can understand. The illustrations are also first rate. I heartily recommend this book as a basic text for anyone that does not have any knowledge of computers. It is also an excellent review for anyone who thinks that they know it all. It is well written, well-organized, and has a wealth of easy-to-understand illustrations for all to follow. It covers all aspects of computers from the basics to the internet. The only complaint I have is that the binding leaves a little to be desired, however for its cost it is a good buy.

This book is perfect for the beginner--full of basics & easily read & followed. The later edition in 1998 was equally as informative, and also full of really helpful how-to tips. Nowhere in the books do you get bogged down with information you really don't need as a novice---TERRIFIC!!!!
