Children's Book
This is a children's book about Larry Ellison.The hard cover is thicker than the 80 pages contained within.If you want a few hour read to get some info about an amazing and interesting man, you've found it.If you want any depth at all, go elsewhere.

Quite Simply, the Best Book on Larry Ellison . . .
Which is surprising because it is supposed to be a children's book. Written for readers between the ages of 9 and 12, it is part of the Techies series, offering small-format books introducing significant figures in high-tech businesses. Other volumes in the series are about Marc Andreessen, Steve Jobs and Jeff Bezos.Read more

Not a worthwhile buy
I bought this at a yard sale and I didnt like it. I took it to the store and they wouldnt replace it. So I decided to read it. It was ok. Just ok. I did'nt learn anything worthwhile but for someone who knows absolutely nothing about word might learn something. The kid interface was a nice feature though you can tell they used terms from way back when (circa 1970s)like groovy and stuff. I give it a dissapointing 3 out of 5.

An ideal learning tool that is NOT for kids only
I have put off learning how to write macros in MS Word for longer than I care to admit because I figuired it was as convoluted as writing MS EXCEL macros.On a lark I ordered this book and am I glad that I did.I am recommending this book to a number of people, some kids and some who act like kids.Laura Edge's examples are geared to kids but it is easy to create non-kid examples based on her ideas. This is a perfect easy to understand introduction to macro writing. Read more
