How can the fundamental concepts of computing be demystified for the non-technical professional? Srully Blotnick, a psychologist and columnist known for his observations on workplace behavior, applies his analytical background to the burgeoning field of personal computing. The text argues that the primary barrier to computer adoption is not technical complexity, but the psychological intimidation caused by jargon and poor instructional design. By framing computing as a logical extension of standard office tasks, the author provides a framework for integrating these tools into professional workflows.
