Surfing on the Internet

Surfing on the Internet

by J.C.Herz (Author)

Synopsis

The Internet is an anarchistic e-mail network that has spread uncontrollably and now circles the globe. Born of the Pentagon's communications system in the 1960s, it has an increasing total of 30 million users who can tap into professional libraries, participate in discussion groups, look at weather maps, read White House press releases, and exchange scientific and academic information. Taking a journey through the highways and byways of the Internet, this book explores the networks and debates the issues created by this new technology.
