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