If you use '+' at the start of a word, that word will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry +Potter
Search results will contain 'Potter'.
- (minus symbol)
If you use '-' at the start of a word, that word will be absent in the search results.
eg. Harry -Potter
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
AND
If you use 'AND' between 2 words, then both those words will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry AND Potter
Search results will contain both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
OR
If you use 'OR' between 2 words, then either or both of those words will be present in the search results.
eg. 'Harry OR Potter'
Search results will contain just 'Harry', or just 'Potter', or both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
NOT
If you use 'NOT' before a word, that word will be absent in the search results. (This is the same as using the minus symbol).
eg. 'Harry NOT Potter'
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
" " (double quotation marks)
If you use double quotation marks around words, those words will be present in that order.
eg. "Harry Potter"
Search results will contain 'Harry Potter', but not 'Potter Harry'.
* (asterisk)

...the book is one of the few that this reviewer is aware of that provides such a straightforward and readable presentation of issues related to workplace noise and vibration...Overall, I found this book to be extremely well written presented in a logical style supported by good photographs and graphics. North American readers will find much valuable information on the basics of industrial noise and vibration surveys even with the UK centric nature of the book. - Noise Control Engineering Journal, Jan-Feb 2005
...safety practitioners who are faced with planning to ensure compliance when the [new EU] Directives become law, will find much to interest them in this volume. - Health and Safety Review, December 2004 ...the book is one of the few that this reviewer is aware of that provides such a straightforward and readable presentation of issues related to workplace noise and vibration. - Noise Control Engineering Journal, Jan-Feb 2005
