The
Internet Guide for New Users by Daniel P. Dern Daniel provides a gentle introduction to the complex issues of using the Internet, and in a straightforward, easy to read style. Chapters such as "Electronic Mail, Usenet, Remote Login, and File Transfer: The Four Basic Internet Food Groups" provide information on everything a user needs to know. You don't need to read the whole book right now, but when you need to know what a file is, it's right there. And who else would provide "The Grateful Dead singing 'Sugar Magnolia'" as an example of a file containing information? My copy of the Internet Guide for New Users is handsigned by Daniel, and it stays by my monitor. Get yours today! |
