Burgess Allison's first book, The Lawyer's Guide to the Internet , deservedly became a big seller for the American Bar Association's Law Practice Management Section. In 1995 only a few of the country's most innovative lawyers had yet begun using the Internet. That book showed us a vision of a connected world that promised striking benefits. In these follow up books, Allison undertakes a more mundane but no less important mission. The first battle has been won, decisively.
Most lawyers now appreciate the Internet's value.
The problem is no longer getting lawyers on the Net, but making them productive once they get there. In his new books, Allison turns his considerable talents to this new struggle. Moving from visionary mode to practical mode, he teaches the nuts and bolts of using the Internet's key research tool, the web browser. He devotes one book to explaining each of the two most popular browser brands. Allison covers all the bases, from selecting the right ISP to finding the top Net legal research sites.
