About this title

Review

"[a] work that provides such a comprehensive reassessment of Information Retrieval (IR) theory, with particular regards to the user-oriented model. Hert has not provided this to provide context and explanation for her investigation; she has also most interestingly provided a chapter dealing exclusively with the pratical implications of this for systems designers....[H]ert's examination of a third paradigm is not only viable but extremely necessary."-Journal of the American Society for Information Studies

"For those with more experience this book would be a welcome extension to an information retrieval collection."-The Australian Library Journal

"For those interested in the theoretical aspects of contemporary user-oriented research into information retrieval, this book could prove to be informative."-New Library World
