Amazon.com's new "Search the Book" feature allows users to search and view the full-text of more than 120,000 books. Sales of books included in the full-text database have increased by 9 percent AND the information contained in these books is much more accessible to researchers, a win-win situation if I ever heard one. Michael A. Banks provides details on how to search this full-text database in his article "Amazon.com Opens the Books" (Online, March/April 2004).
