You do not have to be an Internet expert to use Mosaic or the World-Wide Web, indeed the Web allows transparent access to well-known Internet services such as ftp, telnet, Gopher, WAIS and USENET, all through a common easy-to-use interface. Mosaic's ability to integrate with many third-party programs allows it to cope with a variety of audio, visual, and textual formats. This book tells you how to make it work for you.
