As the health care industry becomes increasingly dependent on electronic information, the need for sophisticated information retrieval systems and for knowledgeable people to design, purchase, and use them also increases. Although a number of books have been devoted to the mechanics of on-line searching and the structure of general retrieval systems, no book has addressed the specific needs and concerns of health care information retrieval systems. Dr. Hersh's book fills that gap.
