Dear Lurkers,
I have undertaken to put my chapters online. Can anyone give advice on

Subject: Re: Electronic contents/chapters of the Psych of Prog book?
I'll try to get my parts of the Psych of Prog book online asap.
Delighted that it's still of interest. I'll enquire whether
Jean_michel Hoc can do the same.
