 Excellent explanation of TAPI and background December 8, 1998
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The book starts by giving some background information on TAPI, then explains how TAPI works. The examples are for MFC, but can be adapted to plain C++, mostly not to difficult. For me, experienced in C++ (not MFC but Borland's OWL) but never done any telephony work, this book was exactly what I was looking for. C++ experience is mandatory, Visual Basic will not do with this book.
A definate must for anyone serious about TAPI development. October 13, 1998

I recently recieved Chris's new book and it's chock full on the kind of information that any "serious" TAPI developer needs to know. He gets right to the point with good clear examples. This one is a must have for anyone wishing to learn the ins and outs of TAPI development. And there's even some good info. for the VB developer as well.
An excellent book that does one thing very well - teach TAPI October 9, 1998

Chris has done a wonderful job of providing an introduction into TAPI programming. Most books that discuss TAPI only provide a chapter or two of information mixed in with other topics, but this book provides over 250 pages of nothing but TAPI. Along with a full chapter on writing TAPI Service Providers (TSP's) the book also provides source code to a high level TAPI framework that Chris developed. This is a definate must-have for anybody who is getting started in Windows telephony programming.

if you are c++ programmer who want to learn in short time the basics of tapi, by waliking via good samples, downloaded from the web, with no need to understand what happen behind the scene, this is your book !!! with extra bonus of good framework, to make the developer's life, much more easy.simple - for all people (but good enough for advanced programming). buy it !!!
Far and away the best TAPI book to date. October 19, 1998

I've been working with and responding to questions on news groups about TAPI for over four years. As a result I've seen every book as well as reviewed all of the Microsoft information about TAPI. IF YOU ARE GOING TO WORK IN TAPI YOU HAVE TO BUY SELL'S BOOK! There is very little written about TAPI and most of what is written is just rehashed Microsoft information. Sell's does a good job reviewing TAPI versions and history but this book is strongest in terms of having lots of good examples worked through and developed in the course of the book. He does a excellent job at explaining how to use multimedia APIs in conjunction with TAPI APIs. His is the ONLY TAPI book that covers Service provider development (a personal favorite of mine.) In addition he has a very good and detailed discussion of what is to come in TAPI 3.0.
