内容説明

"Health Sciences Information Sources" is the first complete and up-to-date guide to information sources in this rapidly expanding field. Librarians, physicians, allied health professionals, medical students, and medical researchers who have had to contend with shrinking budgets, time constraints, and the proliferation of information scattered throughout a wide variety of materials and formats will welcome its systematic and manageable format.Intended as a companion volume to Dr. Chen's "Scientific and Technical Information Sources" (MIT Press, 1977), this new work contains over 4,000 entries covering 24 different types of sources and including listings of both primary and secondary literature. Citations, which are annotated with both critical and descriptive evaluative comments as well as peer reviews where these were available, are grouped according to type of source, and then by broad subject areas. The comprehensive author and title indexes facilitate the search process.The book brings together those types of current information sources typically available in older reference works of this kind and also adds new categories not found systematically listed elsewhere. Several categories of information, such as data bases available for information retrieval, the publications of professional associations, technical reports, government publications, non-print materials, and trade literature, are unique to this book and will be particularly important to research and clinical health science professionals.
