This book is obviously very dated. There is however some useful information for a beginner. A large part of the book is devoted to website listings - I'm guessing some of the sites are now defunct. The book is more of a curious time capsule than anything else. If you are interested in learning more about the internet buy an updated version or one of the dummies books.
