NCBI Bookshelf

Connect to database

Description	National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is adapting biomedical books for the web. The books may be accessed in two ways: (1) they may be searched directly using any search term or phrase (in the same way as the bibliographic database PubMed); (2) they can be found through links to PubMed abstracts. Each PubMed abstract has a "Books" button that displays a facsimile of the abstract, in which some phrases are hypertext links. These phrases are also found in the books available at NCBI. Clicking on a hyperlinked results in a list of books in which the phrase is found.
