Media reviews "I don't believe there's a better bargain available in a computer-related book and no one who ever uses the Internet should be without a copy."
--Joan McIlmoyl Cleghorn, Victoria PC Users' Association, February 2004

"Students and anyone involved in research should make sure they have this very portable resource close at hand while connected to the Web. Great value."
--Major Keary, "PC Update," December 2003

"When I got this book from O'Reilly, my first thought was "How cute! A little book for people who can't figure out a search engine." After reading it, I either have to include myself in that group or change my opinion of the book. This is really good stuff!...In a very concise, readable manner, the authors show you all you need to know to get started with the creation of much more powerful searches than you've had in the past...I used to say that if you give me five minutes, I can find what I'm looking for on the web. After reading this book, I may have to revise that to three minutes. If you get a chance to get this book, do so!"
