It is interesting to note that the authors, diverse backgrounds though they
have, confine the possible types of CD-ROMs to information, education, and
entertainment.  This ignores what is arguably the single largest use of
CD-ROMs--plain distribution media, like any other.
 
The bulk of the book concentrates on authoring and presentation.  This material
will be familiar to anyone who has already done any work on compound document
preparation, CD-ROM or not.  Other sections emphasize business models, and this
content will come as little surprise to those who have managed projects or
drawn up budgets.  The really interesting part of the book is chapter nine, on
the physical manufacture of CD-ROMs.
