Excellent bibliography

Despite it being dated, librarians (both traditional and virtual) will benefit from this research work. It is a good model of viewing information as a social utility. Information visualization in bibliographies, though an old method now, is still a useful method to present information, content and context. Luckily, alcohol is like smoking, described in the American usage as drug (but not that bad!!!), and this book serves the goodies in this context.
