Industry Reviews "Bill Gates paints a dazzling portrait of the future....Most people are bound to be entranced by this Asimovian vision of the information age." Etzioni
"The book does a masterful job of showing how the existing information flow in to the millions of on-line home computers is inspiring all kinds of empowering ways to use technology." Etzioni
"Fun to read....Gates is essentially a pragmatist. He believes technology is our salvation. What really excites him is the 'magical' nature of the new electronic world we're about to enter." Etzioni
"THE ROAD AHEAD does a remarkably good job of explaining the fundamentals of the computer revolution to people who remain hazy about what has really happened." Cook
