About the Author

Raul Menendez got a rude introduction to JCL when he started his programming career 12 years ago. It was his first day on the job after 6 months of programmer training that didn t include much coverage of JCL, and he was handed a production job stream to debug. He wishes he d had our JCL book then! In fact, his goal in this latest edition is to save you the hours of trial-and-error he went through as he struggled with that first assignment. So this book has a practical focus that reflects his years of experience as a programmer, project manager, and systems consultant on COBOL/CICS/DB2 projects in both IBM and UNIX environments.
