Today we can find almost any information on a computer or the
Internet. Without too much thought, we search, browse and use it in
our daily lives, work and study. Yet the issues hanging on a
button-press can range from needless time-wasting, through
frustration at failed searches and missed information, to mistaken
and even dangerous conclusions for users' knowledge, careers,
finance, health, travel or relationships.;This work is a
reader-friendly summary of the latest research in psychology,
computing and information science, that shows how we search and use
information, what can go wrong, and why. It sheds light on online
information seeking in many different contexts, to increase
awareness and effectiveness as a user.
Explores what we know about how we want, see, browse, read, use and
remember online information. Readers take a non-technical and
entertaining journey into previously obscure depths of cognitive
psychology and information science.
Leading basic researchers and clinical scientists describe in
detail a wide variety of established and cutting-edge techniques
they have developed to study the lifecycle and biological
properties of the human papillomavirus. The authors use these
readily reproducible methods, ranging from PCR to propagation of
HPV in vitro, to detect and type papillomavirus infections, study
the papillomavirus lifecycle, and to produce and functionally
analyze papillomavirus proteins. The protocols follow the
successful Methods in Molecular Medicine (TM) series format, each
offering step-by-step laboratory instructions, an introduction
outlining the principles behind the technique, lists of the
necessary equipment and reagents, and tips on troubleshooting and
avoiding known pitfalls.

An unprecedented look at the little-known paintings from Louise
Bourgeois's early years in New York that laid the groundwork for
her sculptural practice "The catalog Louise Bourgeois: Paintings,
and the revelatory exhibition, . . . were overseen by Clare Davies,
who has commissioned an insightful essay from the art historian
Briony Fer. But there's another bonus: Beyond the paintings in the
show, the catalog reproduces around 25 more, meaning that
three-quarters of Bourgeois's contribution to modern painting can
now be seen in one place."-Roberta Smith, New York Times, "Best Art
Books of 2022" Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) is celebrated today for
her sculptures. Less known are the paintings she produced between
her arrival in New York in 1938 and her turn to three-dimensional
media in 1949. Crucial to her artistic practice, these early
works-the focus of this groundbreaking publication-show how
Bourgeois evolved her deeply personal artistic lexicon, and how the
themes and motifs she explored in her paintings coalesced into
symbols of her sculptural practice. Informed by new archival
research and the artist's extensive diaries, Louise Bourgeois:
Paintings explores Bourgeois's relationship to the New York art
world of the 1940s and her development of a unique pictorial
language, adding a key element to our understanding of this crucial
artist's career. Published by The Metropolitan Museum of
Art/Distributed by Yale University Press Exhibition Schedule: The

ELINOR presents the final report on the ELINOR project, conducted
at De Montfort University in the UK between 1992 and 1996. It was
the first time a working electronic library was built for use by
students across a university and the project proved extremely
valuable in generating a large amount of practical experience. This
will enable many libraries to understand the implications of the
transition phase towards the electronic library.
