New books and multimedia

The New Books and Multimedia column contains brief reviews of new books in the computer communications field. Each review includes a highly abstracted description of the contents, relying on the publisher¿s descriptive materials, minus advertising superlatives, and checked for accuracy against a copy of the book. The reviews also comment on the structure and the target audience of each book. Publishers wishing to have their books listed in this manner should contact Olivier Bonaventure by email.
