Good Book, but Out of Date

I wish Elliott Massie had updated this book since writing it in 1995. It is a useful book, but there have been many improvements in technology and I would have liked to have seen his opinion about what works and what does not work in an online setting. Even for an experienced trainer, this book contained some helpful suggestions.
One of the Best Computer Training Books
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is one of my favorite books about computer training (the other is Paul Clothier's "Complete Computer Trainer"). This is a denser read than Mr. Clothier's tome, with more theory and fewer real world examples. If you have to design a computer training program for a single individual, or for hundreds of people - as I have done - then this is one of the must have books. Get this one, and get Mr. Clothier's book, and you'll have all the library you need to design an excellent computer training program.
