| book description |

Today we can find almost any information on a computer or the Internet. Without too much thought, we search, browse and use it in our daily lives, work and study. Yet the issues hanging on a button-press can range from needless time-wasting, through frustration at failed searches and missed information, to mistaken and even dangerous conclusions for users' knowledge, careers, finance, health, travel or relationships.;This work is a reader-friendly summary of the latest research in psychology, computing and information science, that shows how we search and use information, what can go wrong, and why. It sheds light on online information seeking in many different contexts, to increase awareness and effectiveness as a user.
