Product Description

This updated edition includes the most recent terms relating to constantly expanding computer and internet technology. More than 3,200 terms and definitions deal with--

  • Practical guidance for business software users
  • Computer security, law, and ethics
  • Computer programming, with examples in several computer languages
  • Social media, Internet culture, and their latest developments

    Previous editions of this user-friendly book have proved especially helpful to readers who feel intimidated by computer technicians' jargon. The authors clarify technical terminology while keeping to the highest standards of accuracy. One grateful reader called this book the "Rosetta Stone" for deciphering computer terms. Features many line illustrations and tables.

    5Up to date terms
    By T. Rector
    My wife needed a reference book for computer terms in her job, and this book was very current. It appears to be a perfect solution. In dictionary form, so it's easy to use, and is only slightly larger than a paperback. If you need something like this, it is a great choice.

    4Computer dictionary
    By Audrae Kulas
    There are many helpful definitions and I'm sure there will be many times it will be consulted. I began a list of terms, a couple of years ago in an attempt to have a personal dictionary only for Mac, but much too much time would have been involved. I'm glad others were more successful.
