Recenzii

A much needed update to Internet-mediated research that will be highly useful for students and researchers. The book's chapters are nicely interwoven, with in-depth explanation of methods and applications. A must read.

This book is a comprehensively referenced starting point for a vast range of directions in social and behavioural research. At under 200 pages it is a worthwhile read as an introduction or an overview of what the internet can offer researchers in a range of academic disciplines. A useful guide.
