Programmer's Guide to OS/2 By Michael J. Young Published by Sybex (now Wiley) Pages: 625 ISBN: 0-89588-464-X

Comments from Reviewers & Readers

"Michael J. Young's new book exhibits a maturity in its presentation that earlier books have lacked. He speaks with the authority that comes from having done some serious OS/2 programming. Instead of just stating the purpose of an OS/2 function call, Young actually describes how it might be used in real code. ... contains a lot of practical advice for the aspiring OS/2 programmer.", G. Michael Vose, Byte Magazine (February, 1989)

"recommended for anyone seriously committed to programming in OS/2...It is a good reference book as well as a senior tutorial." Hugh Mooney, Big Blue & Cousins (December, 1988)

"I would also like to take this opportunity to complement you on your book. I think you communicated very well many of the more technical aspects of OS/2 programming, and I think that you have made a valuable contribution to the literature of the field." John Mulligan, Valencia, CA

"If your code is half as good as your book I can't wait to receive it. Thank you again for so clearly introducing the key points of OS/2 development." Stephen Silver, Staten Island, N.Y.
