Review :
"Bookmarks seems to be an intelligent and innovative research guide that fully incorporates state-of-the art strategies for research writing in the Information Age, without sacrificing the basics of the more traditional library-based research project. "— Cheryl M. Clark, Miami-Dade Community College "The documentation sections of this text are one of its major strengths. I don't think I have seen a better text in this category, either for accessibility for readers or for completeness." — Craig Branham, Saint Louis University "The Internet coverage in Bookmarks is excellent, as is the information on making Web pages. Wow - this book is ready for the year 2000 and beyond! ... I rate this book as the best guide to undergraduate research that I've seen." — Ted E. Johnston, El Paso Community College
