Summary: The most useful book on Indexing. Quick read.
Comment: This concise easy-to-use book gives instructions and guidelines for indexing any technical publication, regardless of medium and software toolset. It makes indexing simple, consistent, effective, and painless. Kurt Ament's writing style is enjoyably straighforward. I've chosen it as the standard for my tech pubs team.

Summary: A Good Quick Reference
Comment: At only 86 pages (excluding its own index and prefatory material), this book is not going to make you a master indexer, but it IS a great quick reference to the subject. As a technical writer for 25 years, I was pleased to find that I learned a few things from it. And although some of the topics seem common-sense rather than innovative, it never hurts to be reminded of the basics.
I also like the format of the book--it's very easy to find specific topics and to dip into it to answer a specific question. I am buying a copy for each writer in my publications department!

Summary: helpful guide
Comment: This guide to indexing is very helpful for beginners and has some good tips for more advanced indexers as well. The book covers the basics very clearly, and it has an encouraging tone that made me feel more comfortable with the process.
