His work can be considered a comprehensive guide of every part of SciFinder. (International Journal of Polymer Analysis and Characterization, August 2010)

Overall this is a valuable resource and reference volume on using SciFinder to its full potential, while allowing the more casual user to dip into the key points and tips without delving into the complexities of the underlying algorithms used by SciFinder and the book therefore serves both the occasional use and expert alike.
