Customer Reviews

Y2K makes sense at last!

After reading "Exploring the Year 2000," I was able to follow all of the current reports in the press, magazines, and on the Internet, because the author defines the computer terms relating to Y2K, explains who all the major players are in this phenomenon, and gives details about the congressional committees and industry organizations that are monitoring Y2K progress worldwide.

At last, a book that covers legal issues!

I have been worried about my obligations as a landlord (for example, I still don't have assurances from the utility companies that there will be no disruptions of services to my tenants). I also have investments, and I don't know if the value of my stock is going to be affected by Y2K. Ms. Vannelli's book has helped me understand what recourse is available for me. Also, the author has been great about responding to my questions about such issues.

The book covers every aspect of Y2K, including legal issues.

"Exploring the Year 2000: A Comprehensive Layman's Guide," is the only Y2K resource book on the market that covers the entire field of this subject matter (including legal rights you should know about should your life be affected by Y2K disruptions, and a detailed family Y2K preparedness plan). Because the book is written in a simple and lively style, anyone, including those who are computer illiterate, can understand the the details of the problem (how it arose, how it is fixed, how to prepare for disruptions). The author, an Ohio attorney, has followed all of the Senate and House hearings on Y2K since they began, and monitors the federal regulatory reportings. Use the toll free number at the front of the book to get current updates through the end of 1999.
