Notes: Promotional info says: One view of how the Internet has changed the
|
way some companies are doing business. Must reading for anyone looking at
|
the impact of the Internet on commerce and why Internet access is becoming
|
critical for businesses. Matisse Enzer says: Excellent overview and
|
detailed discussion of the Internet from a business users' perspective. An
|
entirely non-technical book, Doing Business discusses the commercial
|
aspects and issues of the Internet: advertising, research, customer
|
contact, etc. Highly recommended.

Notes: A minimalist software package and manual for setting up a UUCP
|
connection for mail and news. This title is almost completely misleading.
|
This book is not for DOS users, except that you must be running DOS to run
|
the MKS UUCP for DOS programs for which this book is a manual. This book is
|
also not about the Internet, as such. Both the specifics and the concepts
|
refer to UUCP rather than the Internet. The text of the book does point out
|
that there are differences, but the examples given relate to UUCP. That
|
said, for those who are interested in making their first move to a direct
|
Internet connection, this could be an excellent choice. UUCP was designed
|
to be quite comfortable with dialup connections, and this book and
|
associated programs, help to automate a number of the connection functions
|
while freeing the user from much of the technical detail that TCP/IP
|
requires.
