Å®ÉúСÊÓƵ’s Perspective (Wiley, £24.95, ISBN 0 471 96521 9) Damon Ridley
has provided the perfect guide to finding your fix on the Internet. A chemist,
for example, can travel from basic commands and tools, to the hierarchy of
bibliographic databases, substance searching and looking for reactions. The
author writes from a scientist’s viewpoint, providing detailed examples of
getting the most out of Medline, STN and Derwent’s patent database, among other
services.
