Written by Matthew Wall, author of "The Sunday Times" Webwise column, it should appeal to all those who want to get online and use the net without the technical jargon which puts off non-specialists. Making ample use of screen shots, real examples and lively text, it covers covers: getting started on the Internet (what computer you need, modems and Internet Service Providers); surfing the net (web browsers, finding what you want, search engines, and news services); security on the Web (protecting your family, viruses, encryption, and regulation); electronic mail (how it works, security features, and protecting your privacy); and making the most of the web (web radio, web TV, web telephone, and digital music).
