Many network correspondents have asked for ftp-able lists of Prentice
Hall textbook and reference titles in Computer Science, Math, and Engineering.
Starting May 25, the following files will be available to copy from 

                         uunet!~/tmp/prenhall/

   - - -  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
   ai_math_etc.prenhall       |   microprocessors.prenhall
   database.prenhall          |   operating_sys.prenhall
   digital_systems.prenhall   |   programming_lang.prenhall
   distrib_systems.prenhall   |   software_engineering.prenhall

UUNET is also known as uunet@uu.net.  In Europe, the same files are
available from: 

	         sfd.uit.no [128.39.60.50].

On that site, they are in the directory ~/pub/doc/Prentice-Hall

These files do not contain prices.  They do include a header with 
instructions on how to request examination copies of texts for academic 
use, and how to order reference books for professional use.

As new books are published, I plan to post a monthly file named, for example,
"new_titles_july.prenhall".

If you have problems copying these files, please send mail to 
books@prenhall.com.  We will send you a copy from here.

I appreciate your comments on this service.
