No, this is not yet another book listing supposedly neat sites on the web that have changed completely since the author looked at them. Barrett's approach is to teach the techniques, strategies, and realities of finding information online. Topics covered include basics for beginners; starting points; search techniques and engines; finding places, people, and software; and putting new information online. If you are teaching anyone how to use the net, this is perhaps the best book to coordinate lessons around. An excellent teaching guide and a good work for individualized learning.
