 "The book focuses on information seeking and the retrieval of documents and document-like objects by individual actors searching single systems. This is the problem of information retrieval: We now must think much more broadly about systems that integrate support for all user task (work task) functions..."  "Despite its comprehensive overview of the entire field, there are a few surprising absences. ... But these are minor caveats. This book is a wonderful contribution to a comprehensive understanding of a complete and integrated view of information seeking and information retrieval." "[D]espite all recent efforts to support common grounds of research in IR and Information Seeking (IS), we still have a long way to reach an optimal point where researchers in both camps can efficiently cooperate with each other. Luckily, a recent book entitled ‘The Turn: Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context’ can help us to pave this way."  "The central problem for the integration of the field through the kind of research programme outlined here is, as I see it, the sheer complexity of information seekers' questions compared with the relative simplicity of the algorithms devised to retrieve potentially useful documents or their surrogates."

T The Turn analyzes the research of information seeking and retrieval (IS&R) and proposes a new direction of integrating research in these two areas: the fields should turn off their separate and narrow paths and construct a new avenue of research. An essential direction for this avenue is context as given in the subtitle Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context. Other essential themes in the book include: IS&R research models, frameworks and theories; search and works tasks and situations in context; interaction between humans and machines; information acquisition, relevance and information use; research design and methodology based on a structured set of explicit variables - all set into the holistic cognitive approach. The present monograph invites the reader into a construction project - there is much research to do for a contextual understanding of IS&R. The Turn represents a wide-ranging perspective of IS&R by providing a novel unique research framework, covering both individual and social aspects of information behavior, including the generation, searching, retrieval and use of information. Regarding traditional laboratory information retrieval research, the monograph proposes the extension of research toward actors, search and work tasks, IR interaction and utility of information. Regarding traditional information seeking research, it proposes the extension toward information access technology and work task contexts. The Turn is the first synthesis of research in the broad area of IS&R ranging from systems oriented laboratory IR research to social science oriented information seeking studies.
