This review is from: Jewish Guide to the Intern 2ed (Paperback)

This was an important resource when it first came out. It has been updated on the 'Web'. It shows the richness of Jewish sources on the Web. However from 1997 until now a lot has happened.
That is to say it seems to me that it is precisely this kind of book which is as good or better as constantly updated material on the 'Internet', rather than as fixed dated package in book - form.
