This practical reference will save students and researchers hours of "googling" and surfing time. It is divided into 25 areas of business, among them accounting, company information, industry information, labor, real estate, and taxation. Contributors searched the Web to find gateways, portals, directories, and metasites of business information. The panel of mostly business librarians identified, evaluated, and summarized the most useful sites based on timeliness, relevance and reliable content, east of navigation and use, and authority of site's author or publisher. Brief introductions provide background subject material, and descriptions of each site are 5 to 10 meaty sentences. A detailed index offers additional access points. Users of this volume will quickly be led to relevant Web resources. RBB
