5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent beginner book, clear and concise, February 15, 2000
By Bob Simpson (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
We think the book is a great beginners book on e-commerce. We make all our staff read it and have made thousands from our new website by following the book. We highly recommend it as a good place to start on e-commerce.

5.0 out of 5 stars More depth than most e-commerce books, May 15, 2000
This book has more depth on e-commerce than most e-commerce books. That is surprising since it is a "Complete Idiot's" series. The applicability to the business side of e-commerce is especially good. The book, taken as a whole, is a great starter's bible on e-commerce and technology businesses in general. If you want to know how to program Java or build a router from scratch then you'll need a different book but if you are building a company (any company) then don't miss some of the gems of wisdom buried deep in the book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor writing, but a few good suggestions, February 13, 2000
By Keith Winter (Oklahoma City, OK United States) - See all my reviews
This book is poorly written in my opinion, the chapters don't seem to flow into each other and the information covered is very basic. Chances are you already know almost everything contained if this book if you have a web site already or have browsed the web very much. If you are completely in the dark as to how the internet works, buy this book, otherwise save you money.
