The Internet is host to a world of information... and misinformation. At the Khan Academy, an online education site started by visionary Salman Khan, one can learn about such diverse subjects as whether there are different sizes of infinity, or if basketball star and regular contributor to the site LeBron James thinks it's easier to make three free throws or one three pointer. That's right: LeBron James is a regular contributor. And Bill Gates's kids are regular visitors. Find out just who Salman Khan is and how he became a superstar magnet, and a superstar in his own right.

      Gr 7 Up-Tech-savvy kids and gamers will welcome these hip, well-written titles that respect the intelligence of the intended audience. Students will be inspired by the talented and (mostly) young entrepreneurs and their revolutionary ideas. The history and development of these visionary ideas are covered, as are ongoing improvements. Those not yet in the know will learn more and will definitely want to try out the sites and products profiled. Though these may seem like book-length commercials for the services and products described, the authors also candidly discuss negatives and corporate problems. High-quality color photos and informative sidebars enhance the texts. Occasional editorial and proofreading errors pop up from time to time. VERDICT Middle schoolers will find this set appealing; the focus on up-to-the-minute enterprises make these volumes useful in computer and economics classes.
