Advanced Text Indexing with Lucene (O'Reilly)

Otis Gospodnetic introduces Lucene on O'Reilly. "Lucene is a free text-indexing and -searching API written in Java. To appreciate indexing techniques described later in this article, you need a basic understanding of Lucene's index structure. As I mentioned in the previous article in this series, a typical Lucene index is stored in a single directory in the filesystem on a hard disk."
