Editorial Reviews
Review
School Library Journal : "These series titles provide overviews of their respective subjects. The appealing layout includes large fonts, many color photographs, and simple diagrams."
-- School Library Journal ( September 2002)
Library Talk : "This series explores the concepts of the title of each volume by defining and explaining what they are and how they work. Colored photos on nearly every page make the series visually attractive while they add to the understanding of the text. Appealing illustrations and text will interest young readers with information suitable for reports. Recommended."
-- Library Talk (May-June 2002)
Library Media Connection : "The writing is clear and well suited to young readers without talking down to them. The color photos are well chosen and show a good balance of ages, genders, ethnicities, and settings. The book also includes a list of resources for further investigation, a glossary, and an index. It would make a handy classroom reference.
Teachers may find the book useful in another context as well&#151as an example of report writing and how to present facts. The format handles foot-notes, references, and the bibliography in a straightforward manner that presents a good model for students to experience and follow."
--Library Media Connection (August/September 2004)

Book Description
The Internet is not a place, nor is it one single thing. It is nothing more than a tangle of wires and cables--a huge network that allows computers all over the world to talk to each other. This book discusses the Internet's history, how the Worldwide Web made it more accessible, different ways people use the Internet, and the impact it has had on society.
