Mastering Miva Books: A Practical Guide from Search to Multi-Book Reading

Miva Books: More Than Just a Booklist

Ever wanted to compare perspectives from multiple experts on a specific topic, like "habit formation," all at once? Or perhaps you want to quickly see if a key book you're interested in is part of the Miva collection before diving in?

Miva Books is your starting point for achieving these goals. It’s not just a place where books are displayed; it's a powerful tool designed for cross-referencing books, conducting thematic research, and precise knowledge discovery. By making the most of Miva Books, you can elevate your reading efficiency and depth to a whole new level.

The Miva Books Interface

1. Search Bar: Search for the books you want to read.

Searching in Miva Books: Keyword Search vs. Semantic Search

• Keyword Search:
  • By entering the exact book title or author's name in the search bar, you can quickly find the specific book you're looking for.
  • Important Reminder: Search requires original-language titles. To find a non-English book, please search in its original language or by its common English name.

• Semantic Search:

If you don't have a specific title in mind or wish to explore a particular concept, we recommend returning to the homepage and asking Miva directly in the chat bar. For instance, you could type: "I'm looking for books about Nietzsche."

Miva will understand your intent and recommend relevant books. This is much more effective than searching for a needle in a haystack in Miva Books!
