This book is kind of about creating reusable software code.  Beyond that, it is
difficult to say much.
 
It is kind of about Windows 95, and waited for completion until Win95 finished,
but isn't tied to that OS.  The samples should work under Windows 3.1 and NT as
well.  It isn't really about object oriented programming, although most of the
samples come from C++ and use the Software Development Kit (SDK) or the
Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC).  The material is clear enough to follow
(and the humour makes it amusing enough to read), but it is difficult to say
how this collection of samples will help you build reusable software components
any more than any other collection of algorithms would.
