The book starts out right in your face with its title.  Are your kids naked online?  The answer is probably, yes.  I was pleasantly surprised to see in the first half of the book that I am a pretty decent parent.  I was already doing many of the suggested ideas.   What was fascinating that I had not seen anywhere else, was this serious manual, provides a list of what kids are saying online.  "New language" that they use to keep us, the parents, in the dark.  The writers also tell us if you register your copy of the book, they will send you more to add to that list.  I highly encourage you to do so.

This book focuses on the NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1080 graphics card.  It covers its uses, compares the abilities, and breaks all this down for the user.  I was not aware of the details for graphics cards, as such, but after reading this book I feel so much more aware. I recommend reading this book, or something similar prior to changing out your own graphics card.  Since this author has a great talent for making such a thing easy for the user in real words, I think this book is a great manual to have. I think it is a terrific explanation of some of the most complex information in the computer and gaming industry.  This is a very well done book by someone who obviously knows his audience.  I give this book a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!  ***This ARC copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.
