Over 80 percent of all Web surfers use Netscape Navigator. This book contains lots of useful information on creating your own Web page and connecting with Windows 95, CompuServe, and AOL, and the included CD-ROM is loaded with useful software. A quick and enjoyable read for beginning and intermediate PC users.

Summary: You cannot learn how to 'push' with this one
Comment: If you are an average computer-novice-but-having-been-surfing-the-internet-anyway like myself, I reckon you already know what you find in this book along the way. The basic functions are same from previous browser products. You'd rather want to know more. The only reason I can think of why you consider buying this book is you want to learn how to 'push' the contents from the www. You can't with this book. It has a few comments and a few pages about how the Marimba's Castanet software but not the Communicator is supposed to do the job(the software is included in the CD-ROM that accompanies this book), but there were no specific procedures in this book. It is read like you can just follow the program's instructions but it didn't work with me. Worse, because this software interfered with Communicator and I couldn't browse with the software in the backgrowd. All of this reminded me of how I had to choose IE 3.0 because I couldn't find an appropriate textbook or an authoritative source from Netscape. If you are familiar with the scenario approach of Microsoft, you would probably find little practical value of this book. This book covers probably most basic things about this browser in fragmental descriptions but you can figure them out if you have used other browsers before. And even if you are a complete beginner, you will have to buy another book to learn the much-advertised 'push' functions about this browser. Frankly, I regret I bought this book. I think you should think twice before buying this one. Look around carefully. It might save your time and money.
