Does what it says... explains
Nay-sayers aside, this is a quick read that puts things in perspective. It gets you thinking, and that's what a book like this is supposed to do!

Huh?
In the introduction, the authors state that their thesis is that we've finally achieved a "critical mass" of computing power and have finally overcome the productivity paradox of the computer age. Unfortunately, the following chapters basically ramble on without direction and never address this origninal thesis.

This Book Rocks
These guys have a cool approach to technology. They understand it and are actually users (where possible) and it seems in the know (where not)! They are like a couple of teenagers - they embrace technology for useability and functionality's sake genuinely impressed and enthusiastic by "Wow" stuff, but able to cut through the "salesy" clutter that tends to dupe journalists. The autnors have great insight into where technology is headed and what the future holds! If you only see one movie this summer.......
