Recenzii

Law on the Internet is a compact guide that allows even the novice internet user to quickly track down law-related websites, both in Australia and overseas. Each major area of law including anti-discrimination, computers, criminal, environmental, family and tax have been given their own chapter so it's just simply a matter of turning to the right page and looking up the website address. Perhaps the most useful feature is the point form listing of each website's main contents. The book is broken up into four parts: Getting started, general sites, legal institutions and subject specific sites. For the layperson, useful information relating to things such as libraries, leading sites and legal journals is also included. The system works quite well as the reader can immediately choose the level of detail they need - from abroad overview on a general site suitable for a casual business-related query, to the actual case law and legislation that is more the province of a student or legal practitioner. A useful guide for any person with an interest in the law. My Business, October 2002 Searching through the morass of information [available on the interent] to find just what you want has become a real skill. Law on the Internet is an invaluable guide fpr people searching for legal information within this morass. Written in a simple, straightforward style, this guide to legal sources on the internet is easy enough for even the most computer-illiterate researcher to use. The guide begins by introducing the basics of web searching, including a list of useful search engines and how to get the most out of them. Common terms and tools are explained simply, such as how to use Boolean operators and what web addresses mean. Most helpful for more experienced researchers is the section on the ‘invisible web’ with some tips and sites on how to find information that might not be turned up using conventional search engines and methods. This section is particularly useful as it teaches the reader skills for improved searching, rather than merely listing search sites. The bulk of the guide is made up of lists of websites containing legal material. Sites for legal searches, libraries, universities, government, law journals and legal dictionaries are included along with more specific sites grouped by legal subject. These groups are also linked to one another when areas of law may overlap. Best of all the content of each site is summarised and the frequency with which it is updated is noted to allow researchers some idea of the currency of information held on the site. This is invaluable, enabling researchers to focus on the most useful, up-to-date sites first. Law on the Internet is a thorough, well presented accessible and timely resource. It will be useful both to those new to legal research on the internet and the more experienced and provides a compact solution to the often bewildering array of legal information now available on line.
