5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive & Valuable
Reviewed in the United States on 3 April 2017

This is a superb book. It explains numerous concepts in hardware and software quite well. It's as big as a telephone book and just as useful. It doesn't deal with any software application in depth but deals with ideas like cloud storage, the solid state drive, Wi-Fi, cookies, hyperlinks and so on.What do they have in common? All computers make use of them.Still there are limits. It discusses programming but it can only take readers so far before they must search and buy other books on the matter. Nevertheless it does an excellent job, connecting the dots between hardware and software. It increases your knowledge and expands your perspective for ideas and an industry. The list price for a new book starts at $268 but Amazon sells usually sells a new book for just less than $70 or rents it for $35. I bought one like new for $40.The money was well spent. If you work with computers you'll want it for all the background material that it provides you. It's also pretty readable too.
