The computer Age

It is hard to think of a career in which computers won¨t play an important part in the next ten years. Obviously, the careers which will require the most knowledge of computers are those within the computer industry itself. But as computers continue to become less expensive and more powerful, their use will spread to every other industry and service. Soon; people will no more think about running a business without computer assistance than they would consider running a business without a phone or electric lights. Therefore, even if your plans for the future do not include getting a job in the computer industry, the knowledge about computers which you will obtain from this book will help you in any other type of career you eventually choose.
