I must disagree!
The internet is a great 'reference' tool, but it's hard to beat a good book if you want to orient yourself to a completely new topic. The career of the author and the reputation of the publisher back up the correctness of the information in a book and a good book should have a clear scope. Which means you should be able to read the synopsis/introduction and have an idea of the topic(s) you will have covered and the depth of knowledge you will have obtained after you've read it through, page-by-page.
It's more difficult to do this on the internet.
