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'

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'

" " (double quotation marks)
If you use double quotation marks around words, those words will be present in that order.
eg. "Harry Potter"

In 1888, Thomas Edison announced that he was experimenting on 'an instrument which does for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear, which is the recording and reproduction of things in motion'. Just as Edison's investigations were framed in terms of the known technologies of the phonograph and the microscope, the essays included in Moving Images: From Edison to Webcam address the contexts of innovation and reception that have framed the development of moving images in the last one hundred years. Three concerns are of particular interest: the contexts of innovation and reception for moving image technologies; the role of the observer whose vision and cognitive processes define some of the limits of enquiry and epistemological insight; and the role of new media which, engaging with the domestic sphere as cultural interface, are transforming our understanding of public and private spheres. The seventeen previously unpublished essays in the collection represent the best of current research in the history of the moving image, and make a timely and stimulating contribution to debates concerning the impact of new media on the history of cinema.
