Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Relational databases excel at storing large amounts of certain types of data, but are less effective for textual information storage and retrieval because documents do not readily translate into traditional database schema. Eight chapters by international experts explore emerging methods to meet this challenge: e.g., a Document Object Model to generate hypertext documents; automatic text categorization; metadata (data about the text), and databases specifically designed to store and mine text.
