Extremely helpful book, I understand the basics of Internet now. Explained concepts in a simple and crystal clear way. Loved how it covered everything from connecting to the Internet to using browsers and email. The step-by-step stuff was really useful. Honestly, even the tough parts felt easy to follow. A bit old-school in some places (like Internet Explorer and all), but still super informative. Great for anyone who’s totally new to this stuff.
