Hi. I'm the editor on Bots. The book has a nice chapter written by
Daniel Drielinger, author of the Savvy Search engine. He did a good
job presenting the basics of robot gatherers.
The whole book is pretty much written at an introductory/intermediate
level for most recipients of this list.
I'm somewhat biased, but I do think it is a fine book.
