This book introduces interactive videoconferencing: it's history, it's technologies and standards, and more importantly, how to compare, purchase and deploy systems that are appropriate for various applications. It was written for people who enjoy things technical (o.k. "gear heads") but who are unfamiliar with videoconferencing and perhaps with telecommunications in general. The only prerequisite is curiosity about the possibilities of "virtual travel" using video communications tools.
This new medium can bring us closer to those we need to work with, but who, like us, are impaired by the physical distances between us. People with whom we would otherwise spend great effort to communicate with.

4.0 out of 5 stars
The first edition was informative, but immature.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Videoconferencing: The Whole Picture (Paperback)
The first edition of the book was informative, but also immature. This is not a fault of the book, but rather a comment on the state of the industry at the time of the first writing. It is a combination of a high level explanatory book and a product guide which quickly becomes obsolete considering how product technology changes quickly.There is a second edition out, and this review does not comment on it. (Nor is the product listed the second edition)
