TEXT SEARCH FUNCTION:
By selecting "Search" from the "Options" menu in any of the author's works, you can
enter any word or phrase to search for in any work. Do this to return to a specific passage by inputting a key word or phrase you remember from that passage. You can also use the search to compare the different ways the author treats a certain subject (such as politics or religion) by entering that subject in the search field and scanning the results. If you'd like to go to a specific page, you can do so by entering that page number in the search field.
Once you have entered a word or phrase to search, click on the title
that appears in the scrolling list to go directly to that occurrence of the word or phrase. You can then select "Find Next" to go to the next occurrence in that work or click on another work in the list to see another occurrence of that word or phrase. Once you are finished you can either select "Bookmark" to return to the place where you first began the search, or click "Exit Search" to begin reading the most recently found occurrence of your word or phrase.
