Customer Reviews

Excelent Book for Beginners and as a reference

I made a review of the book as a request of one of my friends at college. I work as a Computer Instructor at Interamerican University of Puerto Rico (Ponce Campus). The book is a good start for someone not related to computers. It is also a good reference for educators. Sometimes you need materials related to the Internet and this is good book to find them.

A first rate overview of "literacy" in cyberspace.

Fred Hofstetter is an educator (U of Delaware), programmer, author, speaker and writer who knows digital technology from traveling the road of hard knocks via programming his own authoring package (Podium)to the subtleties of surfing the Web for goodies. This most recent book, Internet Literacy ,(Computer Literacy preceded it, I believe) is a very good compendium of just about any topic a general user would ordinarily want to explore on the subject. I believe purchasers may also obtain a CD-ROM (through separate purchase?). You can't miss on this purchase even without the CD though.
