Summary: Who published this book?
Review: A book that is designed for beginning indexers. It covers a complete overview of important areas such as: writing the index, avoiding the bias, nouns and nouns phrases, paraphrasing entries, linked (Precoordinated) headings and recording entries etc. Throughout the book it gives important examples of indexing standards. If your a beginner without a clue like I was, this book will defintely put things into perpective. After reading this book, I was hungry for more information, I needed more knowledge. Fetters allowed me to see that there is so much to learn about this field. She also cites references of other useful books for further study, some that can be found here at Amazon Books. A useful tool towards understanding the craft!

Summary: The best nuts-and-bolts guide for beginners that I've seen.
Review: As a technical writer, I needed to learn the basics of indexing quickly. Fetters' book was the first that I bought on the subject. Though I've bought many others since that time, I still feel that this title is the best basic guide that I've seen.Don't let the fact that it's slim fool you. It has just the information that you need to begin creating indexes on your own.
