All things considered there are few books on the Amstrad computer. Considering the mad rush to get QL books out, the Amstrad, which was well received and appears to be doing well, is shunned as though it has a social disease. Kuma, who have been supporting the Amstrad with software, have now produced one of the first books for it. It is in the ‘general guide' style covering simple programming in Basic and toying briefly with machine code. There are five broad sections covering basic setting up, using music, graphics, assembly language and ending with the construction and analysis of a fairly substantial home accounting program. There are other programs throughout the book illustrating each new item. The book is well written and thorough, although probably not as ‘idiot level' as some other introductory books — no cartoon characters and colour diagrams here. Quite a good book, but fairly expensive, too. Graham Taylor, PCW
