Summary: Ahead of its time in 1996. Somewhat dated now. Well done.
Comment: Even with the explosion in home based technology in the last three years the basics in the book are well researched and well written. I was really hopeing to find an updated version of this pioneer work. Having many employees now living the vision Ms. Bredin wrote about I require this book to be read and kept/used as reference. It's almost part of the employee manual. I know when they see the 1996 copyright date, and they think they are doing something new, it seems a chore to have to read the book. In the end all have been happy they did. Looking forward to the update.
