Dalla quarta di copertina

This innovative book and software package provide the first hands-on, non-technical introduction to hypertext. Hypertext is a new computer technology for manipulating information―in a grander sense, it is a new way of reading and writing.

With the IBM PC diskettes provided in this package, you will learn about hypertext by experiencing it. You will discover what it is like to read interactively, to find information according to your own needs and interests. The book and software package cover the basic concepts of hypertext, typical applications, and currently available authoring systems.
