4.0 out of 5 stars A thorough and readable introduction to CICS
This book is ideal for COBOL programmers facing the chance of working on their first CICS project. Many obscure points of CICS are explained in a readable fashion, making the book an excellent training aid.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not well written - too verbose.
The book is kind of chatty & includes lots of Kirk's philosophy of programming. Might be ok for a beginner who's never used any other communications software. Being familiar with other online programming software (IMS, ADS/O), I found the information on CICS to be so smothered in useless verbage that it was difficult to read.
