Three things we can count on when it's time to revise are:
-
many of the sites in the book have changed some features or functions
-
there are a number of new useful sites to add
-
some sites no longer exist
The TENTH EDITION IS NO EXCEPTION. The function of every Web site discussed in the previous edition has been verified and upated. Many sites had added (or taken away) functions and features -- and those changes have been noted in the sites' description of this new edition. To illustrate those changes, we captured hundreds of new screenshots.
WRITTEN IN PLAIN ENGLISH (NOT COMPUTER JARGON)
Much of the information that was once only available to professional researchers from expensive, fee-based sources is now available for free on the Internet, if you know how to find it. There’s more to conducting a comprehensive search for information on the Internet than just relying on the results returned by search engines, though. "The Cybersleuth's Guide to the Internet" will show you how to be your own cyber-detective and unearth this information FREE (or at low cost!) on the Web.
"The Cybersleuth's Guide to the Internet" includes numerous examples based on real world research scenarios. Whether you’re just starting to use the Internet for serious research or you’re a seasoned online research veteran, this book can help you find what you’re looking for fast and free.
For the beginning searcher, the book covers many overlooked features of Web browsers, the "mechanics" of navigating the Internet, and basic research strategies and tools. For "power searchers," "The Cybersleuth's Guide to the Internet" covers more advanced search strategies, and uncovers tip and tricks for getting the most out of many of the sites.
