A Very Good Start-up

It is also a well-known computer book series in Russia. "The Internet For Dummies" is the chance to find out in a simple, clear and fun guide which takes the horror out of meeting the Internet for the first time. As a computer writer, I am always delighted to discover new great book that makes understanding the computer. Many so-called Internet books are nothing more than printed collections of Web addresses. "The Internet For Dummies" is a guide designed just for newbies. Authors do an exceptional job of explaining a large number of Internet terms. You'll also find here a lot of tips for optimizing your browser for speed, building your first Web page, managing e-mail, subscribing to mailing lists, and go shopping on-line. "The Internet for Dummies" is a great start to learning the Internet.

Great introductory guide to the internet

Internet for Dummies is a great start to learning the internet. As a computer trainer, I am always delighted to discover comprehensive illustrative material that makes understanding the computer. This is such a book. I recommend anyone learning the computer to start out with this very down-to-earth publication. You may be asking why would a Mind Recovery Trainer want to review a computer book. In my research, I also find it vital to understand basic computing principles. This book will do to you what it did for me.

My two sons are systems analysts and programmers, but I find the things I need faster in this book, than trying to understand what the boys are saying with their technical jargon ! After they answer my question, I still look it up in the book so I can understand the "practical" steps I need to take to get what I want.

Top of my List

I bought Internet for Dummies first, at least as far as the Internet is concerned, I really am one; second, it was highly recommended by my server when I signed up.I expected to use it as a reference work, and still have that expectation, but I was surprised (I don't know why; too many over regimented do-it books I suppose), but I found it eminently readable - so I read it. All of it.Interesting. Informative. Entertaining. Educational. In my view, it should be required reading for every tyro cybernautGreat jobRPVP
