1.0 out of 5 stars Not much help for novice or expert., November 15, 1999
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Student's Guide to Doing Research on the Internet (Paperback)
Like so many books on computer technology, the authors seem to think you need to know how the engine works in order to start the car, so they spend 100 pages explaining the technical inner workings of cyberspace, FTP, gophers, veronica, jughead and other stuff that you don't need to know in order to click the mouse on "search." If you want to know the technical stuff, find the nearest Alpha Geek who will be more than happy to explain the inner workings of the 'net to you in terms you still won't understand. This book has a 1995 copyright, so do I even need to mention that the 200 pages of resources in various disciplines is woefully outdated? I think not.
