'Ó Dochartaigh has produced an exceptionally useful resource for finding material that a student, undergraduate or postgraduate, might need to find in the course of their studies. The clarity with which it is written and the obvious enthusiasm of the author makes the book an interesting read. A fine achievement'-Dr Christopher Wibberley, Faculty of Health, Psychology & Social Care, Manchester Metropolitan University
I found it a really useful introduction to internet research sklls.
This is an excellent text for any researcher or student. It is an essential text in anyone's library.
Well-rounded and robust. Written by prolific users I suspect. Grounded and relevant at many levels -- from beginners to folk like me who trawl the internet whenever time allows.
A good introduction into an important area.
current overview on Internet Research skills
Was not quite what I was expecting. Interesting but probably not useful for our students.
Excellent book - I am recommending it to my doctoral & masters students
A great book for some of the more mature members of the course.
An absolute gem. I have already told my students about this and recommended they buy it. The library is also ordering copies.
An excellent text which will serve as a very helpful companion for students undertaking web based research associated with literature review work. We plan to recommend this text for students who are using web based reserarch in their dissertation studies.
A vitally important book - fills a niche.
I have recommended this to first years just to get them used to the idea that researching is not quite as straightforward as they think. I feel it will be most useful, however, to the postgraduate students that I deal with and it has definitely been helpful to me with ideas on how to refine searches.
Very helpful and up to date approach. Good broad coverage of key issues and practical application. Works well for both UG and PG
This text book if a good tool kit to have when teaching study skills and research skills
This is a very useful guide to enable students to develop good internet research skills.
Good coverage of an increasingly relevant skills set
Of interst across subjects as well as at the pure research stage
An excellent book to know how to find resources on tbe Internet. The book is truly vital for effectively using electonic resources. The author has done a remarkable job by supporting each chapter with a variety of practical excersises. It is an invaluable reference for students and researchers to improve their internet skills.
Current level of internet use and multimedia studies make this a book that meets contemporary needs for students and teachers alike. Internet searching for seminal papers well covered and internet research methods are explained.
