Summary: It works for me!
Review: Daz has compiled a collective of info that is essentially offered up on a lot of help pages. But, he has put it together in a very concise format. The spiral binding lays open without a hassle. The info about the "deep Web" is a new one for me and I found this section well worth what I paid for the book. This is an excellent resource for teaching groups or classes how to use the Internet for serious research.

Summary: Don't bother
Review: The information in this book is freely available on the Internet and in most net magazine articles. The binding and presentation of the book is also of very amateur quality. Save your money and visit a search engine site like Google. In fact if you do this, you will find the web pages that the material in this book is taken from!
