Booknews

Boar, an executive with AT&T (which holds the copyright on the book), ridicules recent writers who suggest that converting from a mainframe computer system to a client/server system may not always be the best move. Addressed to information technology managers who want to sell the change to their superiors, he details the technical and strategic advantages of the client/server approach and offers tips for the manager's presentation. He also provides advice on design, planning, and implementing a system. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
