Summary: the main uses of the Internet
Comment: If you browse the Web, and would like to know more about its underpinnings, but hail from a nontechnical background, then this book can be quite informative.

The authors go into the main usages of the Internet. Email and browsing are the most prominent. The first two killer apps. You can see that the Internet and the Web are not synonymous. Though many people use the terms interchangeably. It was the development of HTML and its partner, HTTP, that gave rise to browsers and the World Wide Web.

The book also explains other usages. Always striving to minimise the technical jargon. Though you do get enough of the latter to at least now have some understanding of what they entail.
