Your June "Books & CD-ROMs" section takes a look at four books relating to the information superhighway. The most highly rated title is one written by Nicholas Baran, who also happens to appear on your masthead. I haven't read any of the four books and thus cannot comment on the accuracy of the review. However, don't you think it might be ethical to list, in the book review, Baran's editorial and fiscal relationship with BYTE?

In no way was our review slanted in favor of one of our consulting editors. But yes, the review should have acknowledged Baran's relationship to BYTE. --Eds.

My approach to software engineering is far more pragmatic than it
is
theoretical--and no language better exemplifies this than C++.
