While it could not provide the sort of resources the larger references do, it could still play a useful role as a starter guide to the net. This book is at least two years old. It's emphasis, however, is even older. The content of the book dates to a period when UNIX shell accounts were the primary means of access to the net. There is, therefore, a lot of material on UNIX and shell applications, while nothing is said about SLIP (and very little about the World Wide Web). My, how time flies, eh? copyright Robert M.
