I picked this book up and began reading it -- two months ago; and it belongs to my mother. She said, it mysteriously appeared in the mail (around 2016). I suggest, anyone who loves surfing the web, utilizing apps, and social media read this book because it's more than that. This book introduces the casual internet user to integrated technology.

Great intro and well-presented, easy to understand tips for beginners; regular internet users won't find much new, however.
