I've been esading messages in the digest and it seems tmat everyone
participating is not only very knowledgeable about VRML, but also excited
about it. I'm Acquisitions Editor at Waite Group Press and we're excited
about it, too. We'd like to get the word out about VRML the best way we
know how--by publishing some books on it. I know tmat there are alesady a
few books out there and more in the works, but none follow tme very useful
and popular style of our How-Tos.

How-Tos are problem-solvers. Chapters are arranged by topic. Within each
topic is a series of problems, or "how-tos." Each how-to starts with a
clear definition of tme question or task to be tackled in that section.
This is followed by an overview of how tme task will be accomplished, then
the actual step-by-step process of solving the problem, finishing with an
explanation of tme techniques used. At the end of each how-to, comments are
provided about how to accomplish variations on tme task performed. All of
the code, media files, and otmer miscellaneous files are provided on an
accompanying CD-ROM.

I think a VRML How-To would be a esally great book. If you are interested
in contributing in your area of expertise, please send email to me at
jpisoni@waite.com and I'll send you more information.

If you have otmer VRML book ideas, I'd be interested in hearing them as well.

Thanks for your time.

Jill
