¶ A collection of humorous short stories, some with a nautical aspect. Alfred Walter Barrett [ 1869 - c1933 ] journalist & author who published many books using the pseudonym R Andom. He was taken to court in June 1921 and found guilty of conspiring to corrupt public morals - he had published a lonely hearts magazine intended to allow lonely peiple find friendship. Some found more than that, the judge, in sentencing Barrett said - 'There can be no graver attack on the morals of this country than to establish a paper as you did for the purpose of allowing men and women to commit immorality.'

Finding Out About: A Cognitive Perspective on Search Engine Technology and the WWW
Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2000. orig.boards. 25x17cm, xxvii,356 pp. With an unopened computer optical disc in rear pocket.. Minor rubbing. VG.
¶ Contents: Overview; Extracting lexical features; Weighting and matching against indices; Assessing the retrieval; Mathematical foundations; 6. Inference beyond the index; Adaptive information retrieval; Conclusions and future directions ["The World Wide Web is rapidly filling with more text than anyone could have imagined even a short time ago. But simultaneously the task of isolating relevant documents within this vast information has become just that much more daunting. Richard Belew brings a cognitive perspective to the study of free-text information retrieval as a discipline within computer science. He introduces the idea of Finding Out About (FOA) as the process of actively seeking out information relevant to a topic of interest, and describes many of its facets - ranging from creating a good characterization of what the user seeks, to methods of inferring semantic features of content from syntactic clues contained in documents, to the problem of evaluating whether search engines are performing as we have intended. In the process, Finding Out About explains how to build useful tools for searching collections of text and other media" - Publisher's description]
