Review of "Computer-Aided Information Retrieval by Andrew E. Wessel"; Los Angeles, Melville Publishing Company, 1975
View through CrossRef
The author defines the scope of his discussion in his statement: "The core notion in this book is that an inter-locked triad of user organization, thesauri builder and computer technologist is capable of achieving computer-aided information retrieval systems which make actual a great deal of the potential of automated search" (p. 169). Wessel offers theoretical and practical grounds for choosing a methodology centered on people supported by computers rather than a fully automated approach. In particular he advocates development and use of well structured thesauri stored in computers to assist in both indexing and search of documents.
