Web Search: Public Searching of the Web, co-authored by Drs. Amanda
Spink and Bernard J. Jansen, is one of the first manuscripts that
address the human - system interaction of Web searching in a
thorough and complete manner. The authors provide an examination of
Web searching from multiple levels of analysis, from theoretical
overview to detailed study of term usage, and integrate these
different levels of analysis into a coherent picture of how people
locate information on the Web using search engines.
Drawing primarily on their own research and work in the field,
the authors present the temporal changes in, the growth of, and the
stability of how people interact with Web search engines. Drs.
Spink and Jansen present results from an analysis of multiple
search engine data sets over a six year period, giving a firsthand
account of the emergence of Web searching. They also compare and
contrast their findings to the results of other researchers in the
field, providing a valuable bibliographic resource.
This research is directly relevant to those interested in
providing information or services on the Web, along with those who
research and study the Web as an information resource. Graduate
students, academic and corporate researchers, search engine
designers, information architects, and search engine optimizers
will find the book of particular benefit.
