[comp.cog-eng] A good book about the use of spread sheets?

Hi,

	I do a review for a column on current technology. This month I'm doing a
	column on spread sheets. I'll cover the usual books and software relating to
	1-2-3, excel, Quattro Pro and Wingz, but I usually like to site a couple of
	works which look at the technology not from a machine or software specific
	focus but from the human aspect of tools for thought. Something above macro
	design for Excel. But I'm stuck, I can't find any books which look at spread
	sheets as human tools and what it means to use this specific tool. I did
	find a couple of good articles in Byte 12/89, but I'd like a book or a book
	with a good chapter in it. Any suggestions? The magazine is for the general
	public, so I'm not looking for hard core reserach. Any help much appreciated.
