Good for beginners I like it, this is a good book for people like me, Internet beginners. I'm taking an online course at UCC and this is the textbook for that class. It is a self-explanatory book, it has a lot of pictures and graphics. This book gives you a brief history of the internet, how to browse the web, e-mail, shopping, etc. There are real-world examples in each chapter, test, and games. I'm learning how to use, in a safe manner, the internet and this book can guide you and also show you the risk it has. I have read the first three chapters and I already feel more proficient on this subject. Thanks, Roccy.
