Lots of gloss and pretty pictures
Good coffee table book. It uses heavyweight paper, and all the pages are glossy.
If you are already familiar with the Internet there is nothing that this book can tell you. However, if you are new to the Internet, you might as well hold this book upside down.
Surprisingly, there are some gems in this book that are in-depth enough to be useful and colorful enough to be interesting. On page 26 they show a good rendition of the ISO network layers. On page 56 is Finding Files with Archie. Let's see if you can find files with Archie. Or Veronica for that matter.
