Balandar Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/brows...2897871-5800008 A significant extension of our groundbreaking Look Inside the Book feature, Search Inside the Book allows you to search millions of pages to find exactly the book you want to buy. Now instead of just displaying books whose title, author, or publisher-provided keywords match your search terms, your search results will surface titles based on every word inside the book.

Balandar Posted October 25, 2003 Author Share Posted October 25, 2003 This would have been handy when I had research projects in college and needed to find books on certain subjects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balandar Posted October 26, 2003 Author Share Posted October 26, 2003 Uh oh... found this on slashdot, seems amazon is in some trouble now. "Yesterday, Slashdot readers discussed Amazon's brand new, technically impressive and highly useful book search feature that lets users search the full text of over 120,000 books. Today, the Authors Guild is saying that the publishers don't have the right to let Amazon do this. Uh oh." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
