Product Details
The Cybersleuth's Guide to the Internet 2017, by Carole Levitt and Mark Rosch Much of the investigative research information that was once only available to professional researchers from expensive, fee-based databases is now available for free on the Internet, if you know how to find it. The authors of The Cybersleuth's Guide to the Internet, 14th edition have done the test searching and sifting through hundreds of sites to show you how to find information for free on the Internet to meet your investigative research obligations. The book is written in easy to understand language with numerous examples based on real-world research scenarios. The guide is organized with clear headings and hundreds of screen shots of Web pages-with Web site names and URLs in boldface type - all of which make the book easy for you to use. Whether you're just starting to use the Internet for serious research or you're a seasoned online research veteran, this book can help you find what you're looking for fast and free. For “novice searchers,” the book covers many overlooked features of Web browsers, the “mechanics” of navigating the Internet, and basic research strategies and tools. For “power searchers,” it covers more advanced search strategies, and uncovers tips and tricks for getting the most out of many of the sites discussed. By using the techniques in this book, readers will sharpen the tools necessary to effectively conduct free (and low cost) investigative research on the Internet before beginning their search. Indeed, given how easy the authors make it to use the Internet to find pertinent information on companies, people, experts, judges, government resources, and more, it may be malpractice not to use the skills contained in this book.
