Summary: This is a cool book - buy it
Comment: There are lots of books out there about Internet research, but this is hands down one of the very best.

The book is targeted at beginning and intermediate-level Internet users, but users of all abilities should find it extremely useful. I like to consider myself a fairly experienced Internet researcher, but by the time I finished the book a forest of Post-It notes had sprouted from pages that listed sites or techniques that I wanted to try.

To top it off, the book is written in a lively style. When was the last time someone said that about a computer book? Bruce Maxwell - Author, "How to Find Health Information on the Internet"
