SciFinder provides desktop access to several databases from the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) and to the bibliographic database from the U.S. National Library for Medicine. Ridley (chemistry, U. of Sydney) identifies what and how information is organized in SciFinder, and recommends strategies for searching by topic or chemical substance. A separate chapter on searching for chemical reactions helps synthetic chemists find information in the complex area of chemical reactions. The second edition focuses on the web version of the software and updates the search examples with color screenshots. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

SciFinder® is rapidly becoming a preferred means to access scientific information in industry and universities worldwide. It accesses databases which span the chemical, engineering, life, medical, and physical sciences, including five Chemical Abstract Service databases and the National Library of Medicine bibliographic database Medline®. No other single information access tool has such breadth of coverage for scientific journal and patent documents.

Information Retrieval: SciFinder®, 2nd Edition is an essential guide explaining how to get the best out of SciFinder. It discusses the 50+ options in SciFinder® including topic, bibliographic, and chemical substance explore options, and post-processing options Analyze, Refine, and Categorize. The book:

  • Summarises the databases and explains how to take advantage of the unique search and analysis options
  • Explains selected algorithms behind the operation of SciFinder® and why it helps to understand them
  • Discusses why it is important, and how to apply scientific method to information retrieval
  • Describes how to search for chemical structures and chemical reactions

This second edition of Information Retrieval: SciFinder® has been fully revised and updated to incorporate the latest functionality and content of SciFinder®. Written by a scientist for scientists,  this book will increase your research creativity and productivity and is an essential resource for anyone needing scientific information in academia or industry.

Recenzijos

"Overall this is a valuable resource and reference volume on using SciFinder to its full potential, while allowing the more casual user to dip into the key points and tips without delving into the complexities of the underlying algorithms used by SciFinder and the book therefore serves both the occasional use and expert alike." (Chemistry World, December 2010)

A state-of-the art product...is SciFinder, offering comprehensive databases both bibliographic and factual. A great majority of resources in SciFinder are produced by CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service), a division of the American Chemical Society. This platform also offers advanced tools for working more comfortably with the system. Damon D. Ridley in his book focuses in detail on every option offered by SciFinder.  His work can be considered a comprehensive guide of every part of SciFinder." (International Journal of Polymer Analysis and Characterization, August 2010)
