From Library Journal
Chai (coeditor, Hoover's Handbook of World Business 1993, Reference Pr., 1993) has compiled information on 101 companies related to the information industry. Individual commentaries include a description of the product, list of corporate officers, financial data, and a summary of both favorable and unfavorable analysis. Several chapters describe the infrastructure of cyberspace. Simultaneously, Hoover's has launched a web site, www.cyberstocks.com, to update the book. This free, up-to-date, web site is a superior substitute for the book's company descriptions. Here's the message: skip the book and pursue this information on Hoover's web site or consult the Silicon Investor at .?Joseph Barth, U.S. Military Acad. Lib., West Point, N.Y.
