註釋
The book is the first book in English dedicated solely to Google Web Search. The book is written for lay people searching for information on the Web. It shows the readers how to find the information they need in the vast and ever-increasing amount of documents floating around on the Web. The book is based on the Google US search page. It is intended for international readers and written in a simple non-technical language. The book describes all Google Web Search features and tools in details. It offers the most comprehensive description of Google Web Search available. The book's major objective is to teach the reader how to write an effective query, and how to use the search filters and other search tools to bring the relevant pages to the top of the search results list. All critical steps are illustrated with detailed screenshots. Complex Google pages, such as the search results page, are first shown in their entirety to give the reader an overview. Subsequently, each main figure is broken down into smaller pieces, each clearly illustrating an element of the page in details. All screenshots are distinctly labeled to ease reference to specific parts of complex figures. The Web search techniques described are illustrated with realistic examples. The search techniques recommended have been found to increase in the relevance of the search results. For the newcomer to Google Web Search, the book is best read from cover to cover. A comprehensive table of contents, extensive cross-referencing, and a detailed index makes it possible to start anywhere in the book and to read selected sections. This also makes the book suitable as a reference. The reader does not need to have any previous knowledge about Google Web Search or Web search in general to benefit from the book. It starts at the very beginning and takes the reader to an advanced level in Web search. Due to the discussion of the many complex features of Google Web Search, the book will also be of interest for readers at an intermediate or advanced level. The book is completely up to date. It discusses all the new search features and tools such as Google Suggest, the Options panel, and Translated search introduced or improved in 2009 and early 2010. The editing finished April 1, 2010. The book is supported by a Web site with free access for the readers. Any corrections, updates, and additional information will be published on the Web site to assist the readers in staying current and to benefit from the book some time ahead.
