This weekend I stumbled across a brand new book about groupware/CSCW.
More correctly, it is about collaboration and the technologies which
foster it.

It is called "Shared Minds: The New Technologies of Collaboration" by
Michael Shrage (Random House, ISBN 0-394-5687-8, publication date:
8/90).  According to the bio, Shrage writes the nationally syndicated
"Innovation" column for the LA Times.  He also spent a year as a
visiting scholar at MIT's Media Lab.

I only began reading the book last night, but I'm inpressed with what
I've read so far: it is well researched and well written.  I think it
is successful in articulating the importance and broad scope of this
nascent technology in an easily approachable and enjoyable style.

Where did you find the book?  Has it made Dalton's or Walden yet?  I'm
very interested in reading this one.
