Book Description

January 2000
A perfect guide to online and offline research perfect for writers, journalists, Web page creators, television producers, artists, students, and anyone else who needs information in a hurry. The book is eminently practical, but also conveys a sense that research is an adventure, and that there has never been a better time than the present to find things out.

The Creative Guide to Research is unlike any book on the market today. Traditional research books just touch on the computer and the Internet. Internet research books ignore valuable printed sources and techniques. The Creative Guide to Research combines both and sets the pace for research in the new millennium. It will teach readers:

- How to focus a project and map out a search strategy.
- The best places to research, online and offline.
- Tips for informal and formal interviews.
- How to get the best out of the Web.

This review is from: The Creative Guide to Research: How to Find What You Need...Online and Offline (Paperback)
Chock full of details about search engines. If you are a writer,journalist or film maker this might be a good book for you. Reading it will definitely enhance your internet research skills. Although the author does give an overview, if you want detailed information about searching in libraries or archives this is not the book for you.
