Description: This book concentrates on presenting OS/2's way of programming with graphics, not on teaching the un-initiated about graphics programming. The one major short-coming is that it was written for 16-bit OS/2 1.3. I find it strange that the book has not been re-written for OS/2 2.x, but perhaps the sales of this book were disappointing because of the slowness with which 1.3 caught on. Now is a different story, though. With over 5 million copies of OS/2 sold at last count, we need an updated version of this book.
