• A Must for Searchers
  I have been using the internet for many years, but this book taught me things that I didn't know. Using the links on the book website enabled me to quickly go to pages and learn as I read. It's really a great tool for students learning to do research papers.

• Excellent Resource for Precise Internet Searching!!
  I bought this book as a textbook for an Electronic Information Retrieval course at school. I have found that this is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to learn how to get more out of their Internet and Database searches. This is a must have for anyone needing to do research!!

• An indispensable guide to searching the web
  I was looking for the second edition of this book, which is perhaps some indication of how valuable I consider the first edition to be! Yes, the other reviewers have some good points, the page numbers are hard to read, some of the information in the tables is not so clear... but hang on... you do get over 200 pages stacked with information, tips, tools, references and explanations of how things work on the web. I can't vouch for everything's accuracy and I'm sure with developments it will get dated, but... more info

• Updated web links make this book an essential tool
  This resource should be on every serious searcher's shelf next to Chris Sherman's book(s)and Find It Online. Gary Price updates his website to supplement the chapters in the written book, which is very helpful. Price takes a slightly different approach to Sherman, which helps to find resources which might not be self-apparent from Sherman's books. I can't imagine being without either this tool or those of Price's colleague (Sherman).
