Living legend Smiraglia has written the first book devoted
exclusively to exploring the concept that is commonly referred to
as a bibliographic "Work." In bringing together material from both
inside and outside the discipline of information studies, he traces
the continuing development of catalogs, search engines, and other
kinds of information retrieval tools, the better to understand the
maze of editions and revisions and translations that make up the
evolution of a Work. Two appendixes contain charts demonstrating
the evolution of concepts and definitions of a Work; a third
contains a summary of the sampling technique employed to generate
the data in chapter 5 "Defining the Work in Quantatative Terms" and
chapter 6 "The Constitution of Bibliographic Families."
