BLUE RIDGE SUMMIT, PA--The first book on the subject written especially for
end-users (such as professionals, executives, and scientists) who are not
familiar or comfortable with the modern electronic methods of online
information gathering, this volume describes how to assure a competitive
professional advantage in the computer age by using external information
sources.

Nahum Goldmann provides a set of simple, easy-to-follow rules that readers
can use to access information from any online service with a modem and a
PC. Called the "Subject Expert Searching Technique," it's a method of
sorting through literally thousands of volumes of material on a specific
topic to find information. Readers will learn how to:

** Customize Goldmann's proven research strategy to 
   fit their own special research needs
** Obtain printed copies of records accessed from 
   online sources
** Adapt a search to different online services
** Keep research costs to an affordable minimum
** Choose between various available online systems
** and much more

Other topics include pitfalls to avoid when conducting online research, the
latest types of online services available, and communicating through
academic E-mail systems. Throughout, readers will find dozens of helpful
hints, as well as sample subject searches to guide them in their own
research efforts.
