MYTHOS GREEK ................................................ 1   XED089
Mythos Greek is a reference book for anyone studying or
interested in classical Greek mythology. It is certainly
not a complete work covering everything ever mentioned
in Greek mythology but it does give a damn good go at it.

A PHOTOGRAPHIC LECTURE ...................................... 2   XED088
This is an excellent photographic tutorial entitled `A
Different Approach'. Written by a photographer with over
30 years experience, this program will teach you how to
get away from taking pictures of `the norm' i.e. sunsets and
swans, and experiment with some more radical ideas. The
program is written in AMOS and contains lots of IFF
pictures and documentation.

WORLD HISTORY TIMETABLE ..................................... 1   XED087
The History Timetable is designed to give an interactive
overview of world history. Things have been kept basic but
informative so that the general student of history can see
the general trends - political, military, social, science
and technology, religion and the arts. Many events have
been missed out but the author has tried to give the widest
possible scope covering everything important from wars to
sport.

TRAVEL GUIDE ................................................ 2   XED086a/b
An excellent educational/learning package for anyone with
a remote interest in geography. Teaching about different
countrys, their currencys, climates, population etc etc etc.
Superb.

PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES ..................................... 2   XED085a/b
An educational package explaining how to take better
pictures then Lord LichField. Using a Hyperbook frontend,
incorporating pictures and text, anybody who hasnt got
a bloody clue could do worse then buy this set.

PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES 2 ................................... 2   XED084a/b
Written in hyperbook, this 2 disk package will show you how
to get the best from your holiday snaps whether using a
shitty 5 quid Argos camera or a two grand Mukahato.
Lots of examples of using light etc and also a section
for posh gits who use videocameras.

OCTAMED AND MIDI TUTORIAL DISK .............................. 1   XED083
This OctaMED MIDI Tutorial disk has been balanced with a
considerable amount of information concerning MIDI from
various articles on MIDI, an animated OctaMED Pro 5 MIDI
Tutorial - showing how to set up a MMD1 MIDI Module from
within OctaMED Pro 5 itself, there is also a series of
tutorial MMD1 MIDI Modules on this disk which will load
and play from the menu system itself. Alternatively, you
may wish to load the OctaMED MMD1 MIDI Modules into your
version of OctaMED Professional (and  why  not!) and
examine the structure of these MIDI modules for future
reference. It is hoped that this OctaMED and MIDI tutorial
Disk will provide a basic help and reference guide for those
OctaMED Professional users who wish to experiment using
OctaMED Pro and MIDI as well as using IFF/RAW Samples to
make music on their Amigas!

AMIGADOS GUIDE V1.5 ......................................... 1   XED082
The latest version of the workbench and amigados tutor for
all you thickies out there.

GCSE MATHS EXAM PAPERS ...................................... 1   XED081
GCSE Mathematics Exam is an invaluable study tool for
students aged 16yrs who are preparing for their maths exams.
Students are invited to answer real examination questions
from past papers. Model solutions are also provided BUT
students still need to calculate the actual answers.

GLOBAL FACTS ................................................ 2   XED080a/b
GLOBAL FACTS was drawn from the latest available official
sources, these tables present an easy reference profile of
significant world physical, political and demographic as
well as national data. This is a great educational package
for young and old thickets alike.

CAMERA FUNCTIONS ............................................ 1   XED079
Following on in the series. This instalment tells you what
all the little knobs and twiddly bits on your camera
actually do. Written in hyperbook, this is a very
attractive piece of software.

THE COMPACT CAMERA .......................................... 1   XED078
Next episode contains information about the cheap crappers
you can get at Boots and tells you if they are actually
any good or not.

BEGINNERS TYPING TUTOR ...................................... 1   XED077
Not a typing tutor as such, but typing games and exercises
to increase your speed.

CAMERAS & ACCESSORIES ....................................... 2   XED076a/b
This program gives the novice, or those wishing to upgrade,
some idea of what the different types of camera available
will do. Armed with this information, even a print out, a
visit can be made to the camera shop with some real idea
of what is required. You then come out with what YOU want,
not necessarily what the dealer wanted to sell you ! Having
bought the new camera, this program gives an idea of what
is available to go with it.  It is probably wise to use
the two programs in conjunction, as studying them will tell
the prospective purchaser exactly what is needed to fulfill
all their perceived needs.

THE PORTRAIT ................................................ 2   XED075a/b
This tutorial is a complete re-write of an earlier version
talking about how to shoot portraits. Probably the most
common subject for the camera will be people. Families,
kids, pretty girls, characters etc. Studying the pages of
this computer tutorial will help the beginner get better
results, and there should be a few points that will help
the more advanced worker too.

DEVELOP & PRINT ............................................. 2   XED074a/b
This program is a tutorial on setting up a darkroom to do
your own developing and printing. It also looks at
associated processes. The keen photographer is likely,
eventually, to decide to have a go at printing in black
and white or colour. Following the advice given here will
make the initial experience that bit easier than `going it
alone`. It also includes a section on processing the
negative and other processing related text.
