Title: Learning to use the Electron computer
Description: <p>
This beginners' guide really does begin at the beginning. It assumes that you want to learn to
<i>use</i> the Electron computer in your work or leisure, not become a theorist in computing.
Learning to User the Electron Computer provides a simple, down to earth, jargon-free introduction
the the machine and its software. Follow the text and illustrations and you will end up operating
the Electron and understanding its many capabilities.
</p>
<p>
Many applications of the Electron are described, including business, educational and hobby uses.
Additionally, a simple and direct introduction to programming the Electron is given in a way which
will help motivate the user to further investigation of the Electron's capabilities. The Electron's
ability to produce and draw pictures and diagrams is explored and explained, and progams for a 
large number of graphics applications are presented.

<p>
This book will appeal to new Electron owners, students in schools and colleges where Electrons are
used, businessmen who wish to learn about how to use the Electron and program in it. It will help
those who are already learning to use the Electron, but find their current manuals difficult to
follow. It also provides the would-be purchaser of microcomputers with information on how the Electron
operates and performs, which will help him to assess whether the machine will suit his need.

<b>About the Series</b><br />
As the layout and content of the books in the series are similar, each book may be used in conjunction 
with others for purposes of comparison of performance and capabilities. The Learning to Use series
is an inexpensive way of checking that the would-be purchasers' provisional choice of machines is the
correct one.
</p>
<p>
The series is open-ended and will cover new models of microcomputers as they appear on the market.
