I recommend getting my book, it's a tutorial for the complete Ada novice (it does assume you know something about programming in another language). The book is "Ada 95: The Lovelace Tutorial" by David A. Wheeler. The publisher is Springer-Verlag and its ISBN number is 0-387-948-01-5. The book is about 292 pages long and it's just been published. I have a copy right beside me. To order, you can call Springer-Verlag. In the U.S., Canada and Mexico their toll-free number is (800) 777-4643. You can also fax an order to (201) 348-4505 from those three countries. For those of you in another country, you can contact them in Berlin, Germany by phone at 49 30 827 870 or by fax at 49 30 821 4091. Obviously, I'm biased as to its "goodness", but I think you'll like it, and many other people seem to agree. --- David A. Wheeler dwheeler@ida.org
