Synopsis

This might be called a sequel to the earlier work, Computer Tales of Fact & Fantasy, but is much more ambitious. It's double the size of the first one, 352 pages as compared to 160 in Computer Tales. The stories of 37 authors as compared to 18: 5 of the 37 are prize winners of our international writing contest. This anthology will give all who read it an introduction into the world of computers through the eyes of the writers who either lived through the experiences they tell about or imagined them, vividly. You'll find biographies of every contributor. There's humor, horror, joy, frustration, fact and fiction. Not a how-to for dummies or anyone else; not a technical work.

About this title

From the Publisher:

Following the success of our first anthology of computer events as seen through the eyes of our professional authors we decided to publish one more. So many were helped to overcome their fear of computers, FOC, by the first release, that we wanted to help them along even more with this one. The popularity of the internet and world wide web has brought even more reluctant users into the fold. This will assist them in their quest for knowledge. This book was serialized in the Korean computer magazine Hangyung PC-Line in Seoul.

From the Author:

I thoroughly enjoyed editing this second work. I received so many manuscripts that I couldn't include because the book would have been too heavy to lift, let alone read. The prize winners' pieces are especially intriguing. I'm constantly amazed at the human imagination and never tire of reading its output.
