The Whole Internet User's Guide & Catalog

This is the second edition of an introduction to the Internet, the international network that includes virtually every major computer site in the world. The Internet is a resource of almost unimaginable wealth. In addition to electronic mail and news services, thousands of public archives, databases, and other special services are available: everything from space flight announcements to ski reports, remote login, and network news, The Whole Internet pays special attention to some new tools for helping you find information - like the World-Wide Web and its multimedia browser, Mosaic. Aimed at researchers, students, or just people who likes electronic mail, this book should help readers to explore what's possible. It also includes a pull-out quick-reference card.
