Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Employs the same painstaking thoroughness and accuracy in introducing the GPSS language that made the 1974 book so popular. Includes an educational version, GPSS/H from Wolverine Software, for personal computers that is as powerful, except in file size, as the package that costs commercial users over -5,000. Available in two versions: one with 5 1/4' disks, and one with 3 1/2' disks.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 421-423) and indexes.
