Know about the book -

The Web of Knowledge is written by Eugene Garfield and published by Information Today, Inc.. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1573870994 (ISBN 10) and 9781573870993 (ISBN 13).

This new ASIST monograph is the first to comprehensively address the history, theory, and practical applications of citation analysis, a field which has grown from Garfield's seed of an idea, and to examine its impact on scholarly research forty years after its inception. In bringing together the analyses, insights, and reflections of more than thirty-five leading lights, editors Cronin and Atkins have produced both a comprehensive survey of citation indexing and its applications and a beautifully-realized tribute to Eugene Garfield and his vision, in honor of his seventy-fifth birthday.
