Reviews
Combining superior sound quality, durability, and capacity with such newer features as programmability, the compact disc (CD) player is a fast-growing segment of consumer electronics. Brewer and Key, affiliated with Digital Audio magazine, offer an informative, plain-English guide for the inexpert consumer. They present an overview of CDs followed by a breakdown of hardware and software, comparing CD features and operations with LPs and cassettes, and noting what to look for when shopping for players and discs. Plenty of photos, drawings, and sidebars illustrate the text. A fine introduction to the topic. Donald J. Marion, Univ. of Minnesota Libs., Minneapolis
