Don't expect to write CLISTs
I've been an MVS/COBOL application programmer and TSO user for over 10 years and wanted to learn how to build CLISTs or as the book advertises: "Combine those commands into CLIST or REXX procedures to automate the jobs you do most often." Well, after two good-hearted attempts, the book sits on the shelf. It contains a lot of information but is not a how-to book or one that contains useful examples, in my opinion. This book would probably be better suited for someone who is already familiar with the topic and wants to know all the possible commands.

A complete picture of the MVS/TSO environment
This book presents a complete picture of the MVS environment with chapters on REXX, CLISTs, Dialog Manager, TSO commands among others. While it does not have the complete syntax for any of these components, it is a good starting point for all of them, and one of the few reference books to cover all of them in one book. This allows the author to show the interaction between the components. In all, a very helpful book for the MVS developer.
