Self description: "Summary: The continuing explosive growth of the Chinese Internet is making massive amounts of information about all aspects of Chinese politics, economics, science and technology readily available. Students of the Internet and of the Chinese language will find recent guides to Chinese Internet resources helpful. Search engines on full-text newspaper websites such as the People's Daily make it easy to track statements by leaders, their biographical information and specific issues. [...] This report introduces several books on Internet resources, information security/hacking, and electronic commerce that have appeared in China over the past several months. Although the net itself remains the best guide to the net, these books are guides to many resources including newspapers, bulletin boards, radio stations, databases, software, and Internet telephone conversations that will be useful to all students of China and the Chinese language."
