I have a copy of the Rationale, but it's not quite what I'm looking
for. I guess one of the problems is that, in the past, I found Barnes'
books were of a "how to program a computer, and we'll use Ada to show
you" rather than "oh, you already know how to program a computer,
here's where Ada is different to what you might already know". I'm
looking for more of the latter, i.e. I don't want the really basic
stuff, but the Rationale (for someone who hasn't been using Ada
regularly for about 7 years) is a bit too deep. Something in between
would be nice (like Cohen's book was for Ada 95 !)
