'Computing for the Hobbyist and Small Business', by A P Stephenson, published by Granada at £6.95 (paperback, 200 pages). Computing for the Hobbyist and Small Business is among the latest in the wave of books for newcomers to computing. But what makes this one different is that it breaks the usual structure and sets out to group hobbyists and small business buyers together and concentrate on their needs. The book's introduction sets the gentle style. By the time you finish it you've been given a good idea of what kind of micro system you need. One particularly useful feature is the stock control example program which has extensive explanatory notes. But there are obvious shortfalls, notably the index which is so brief it limits the book's use for reference. However, all in all, it is a good introduction to the business of micros.
