Print Google Search

Open Access note this useful resource from Research Buzz:

Isolating Google's Printed Material in a Google Search Form

This is a nice little form that isolates the material that is part of Print.Google.com so that you can run searches on that material alone. (See Print.Google.com here for a comment on this). Having used this form on some NT topics (cf. earlier entry, New Testament on Google Print), it seems that there is still not a great deal of information there, and on the whole Amazon.com still provides a far better service when it comes to searchable full-text. Here some tidbits that I found using the form, all relatively short excerpts:
