This book is the non fiction that Gates looks back on his life and it is concerned with the future of computer.
In cover of this book,Gates stands at the road.The road is stretching,and probably I think he is thinking that it is not goal,but it is the things that he should do now.This book is described about computer's advantage and disadvantage,and about computer's progress.Although this book is about ten more years ago,but you are worth reading it.

This book was written by one of the people most instrumental in making the internet revolution take place, Bill Gates, the inventor of the Windows operating system and many other such programs. The publication date is 1995, the year the internet first became accessible to John Q. Public. Rather than being biographical, this book speculates on future trends only. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com (ISBN 0670772895, Hardcover)

Love him or loathe him, Mr. Microsoft is certainly an influential voice in the modern business world and The Road Ahead is definitely an important addition to any business library. Gates' description of the beginnings of the information age, while somewhat over-emphasizing his own contributions and downplaying those of his competitors, is nonetheless as clear and enlightening as any in print today. Likewise, his view of the digital future--from hardware to software and education to entertainment--should be read and studied by all who use technology in their business today or plan to use it on the road ahead.
