The Ultimate Desk Reference to the Web applies editorial judgment to the billions of Web sites out there, yielding a nicely annotated list that spans dozens of subject areas. Health, government, sports, news--it's all here. One really nice feature: the book lies flat at almost any page, enabling you to station the volume at your side as you use both hands on your keyboard. Having said that, you would expect a directory published under the Yahoo! brand to have a supporting Web site that would obviate the need to do manual URL entry. No such luck.

At certain points, it's evident that the contents of a Web site just don't translate well onto paper: "Sound Effects has, of course, numerous belches, as well as the requisite boings, bells, and bangs." Right. But, anyway, this book is worthwhile reading for days of idle surfing. It'll make your everyday Web experience certainly more enjoyable. --David Wall

Topics covered: A directory of Web sites, organized by subject area and then alphabetically. Subject areas include art, computers, entertainment, news, science, shopping, and sports.
