The Internet is a great boon to health and safety professionals searching for practical information or answers to their questions. Hundreds of thousands of documents and databases are just a few keystrokes away. In newsgroup discussions, your peers are exchanging thoughts and expertise on the same topics your organization is probably wresting with right now. Solutions to your problems and the information you need to perform your job are there waiting, if you know how and where to find them.
The Internet User's Guide points you in the right direction and gets you connected to the biggest innovation to hit business communications since the telephone! Not only will the Guide provide the basics of getting hooked up and the locations of the best health and safety web sites, it also details how much it will cost to connect to the Internet and how to justify these costs to management. The book shows how to access free information on the Internet (information probably costing your organization hundreds or thousands of dollars per year).
Avoid the frustration most beginners experience when blindly bumping around the net by having this book start your travels down the information superhighway.
