Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 7 Up-Whether their interests lie in working with cyberspace or having cyberspace work for them, teens can find a wealth of current information here. The book begins with an insightful chapter on the development of the Internet. In an upbeat style, subsequent chapters cover the many kinds of opportunities in related fields. Behind-the-scenes portraits of individuals who work as programmers, writers, producers, designers, sales representatives, "cyber-bosses," and entrepreneurs give a real sense of what their jobs are all about. Internet addresses for some of these people provide online examples of quality Web sites. Readers are coached on education and training requirements; informed about the importance of internships; and given advice on creating a dynamic home page, resume, and portfolio. Useful books, software, and helpful Web sites are mentioned for additional career exploration and research. A worthwhile addition to any career collection.-Diane P. Tuccillo, Mesa Public Library, AZ
