Love him or loathe him, Mr. Microsoft is certainly an influential voice in the modern business world and The Road Ahead is definitely an important addition to any business library. Gates' description of the beginnings of the information age, while somewhat over-emphasizing his own contributions and downplaying those of his competitors, is nonetheless as clear and enlightening as any in print today. Likewise, his view of the digital future--from hardware to software and education to entertainment--should be read and studied by all who use technology in their business today or plan to use it on the road ahead.
From Publishers Weekly
Microsoft CEO Gates's musings on the future of the digital age spent 14 weeks on PW's bestseller list.
From Library Journal
This recording, the third based on Gates's best-selling book (the original abridgment was reviewed in Audio Reviews, LJ 1/96; the unabridged edition was reviewed in Audio Reviews, LJ 8/96), has been updated to include Gates's?and by extension, MicrosoftR's?sudden realization that the Internet is the Holy Grail of computing. Having been beaten to the punch by Netscape Communications (whose ubiquitous World Wide Web browsers own anywhere from 70 to 90 percent of the market), Gates finds himself playing catch-up. Here, he lays out MicrosoftR's internet strategies and outlines a brief history of the Internet's meteoric rise in popularity. Thankfully, after reading the new and revised passages, our nerdy-voiced host hands the ball off to reader Rick Adamson, who seems much more comfortable in front of a microphone. Recommended for libraries that passed on the previous two audio incarnations of The Road Ahead and for larger collections wherein popular technology materials circulate well.

From AudioFile
If Bill Gates is right, fascinating surprises are in store for us as technology improves the way we live and work. How about answering the phone from your morning shower while projecting an image of yourself in your best business suit to the caller's screen? The tour of Gates's wired home is intoxicating--this is not just a book for business types and techies. Narrator Adamson is just as excited about these changes as Gates; his enthusiasm and pace aptly project Gates's boyish optimism for the future and all it holds. This clear-voiced view by Adamson is interspersed with audio clips from Gates himself. J.E.G.
