Description
The Thesaurus examines the historical development of the thesaurus and the standards employed for creating a thesaurus. This book also provides bibliographies and tutorials to increase your understanding of thesaurus construction, use, and evaluation. This reference tool offers essential information on thesauri in the digital environment, including Web sites, databases, and software. For 50 years, the thesaurus has been a core reference book; The Thesaurus celebrates this history and speculates on the future of vocabulary-switching tools.
