Gives a broad overview. My professor chose this as it was 200+ pages over the previous textbook that was 600+ pages.The chapters are usually less than 20 pages each, quick to read, and it is pretty current.

I purchased this book for a college class and so far I like the book it's thin, the chapters are of a short but decent length. The first chapter if you already know a lot about computers is kind of boring, but other than that great book. Book arrived in better condition than expected.

Needed this book for fall 2015 semester health technology class and there was no issues. I rented it and all pages were in tact, no highlighting, or writing in the book. Definitely recommend.

This was required for my computers in medicine class. Most of the information needed to know I got out of this book alone. Pretty helpful, but not interesting thus far

this book was worthless. very general information. If i needed that I could use Google.

Very informative book. Easy read. Enjoyed the class!

Received in very good condition. thank you.

A++++ THANKS FOR SHIPPING SO QUICK!
