Wabi, the system that allows you to run Microsoft Windows 3.1 software on UNIX
workstations, doesn't come with printed documentation.  So, if you want a book,
this is it.  Fortunately, the book is well organized, clearly laid out, well
written, and good humored.  (Though I'm not sure that I believe that "wabi" is
a Japanese word meaning "quiet taste" rather than an acronym for "Windows
Application Binary Interface".)
