“Is This Thing On?” A Computer Hand Book for Late Bloomers, Technophobes, and the Kicking & Screaming by Abby Stokes introduces computers and gadgets – from smart phones to tablets – to the many new users who are bewildered by all the buttons, screens, and computer lingo.
Abby Stokes has demystified computers for more than 135,000 people, mostly seniors, during the past 17 years. She has taught courses in basic computing at Cooper Union and New York University’s School of Lifelong Learning, as well as computer skills to private and corporate clients. Stokes is confident that everyone can master the computer and navigate the Internet. She splits her time between New York City and Niantic, Connecticut.
