NEJM Book Reviews evaluate many books that may be of interest. When an online user finds a book interesting, why should he or she have to go through multiple steps (cutting and pasting, or even writing down information) to order the book?

This beta feature with Book Reviews adds a simple purchasing option that links to Amazon.com. If you want to buy the book, you can quickly click over to Amazon.com for more information and to complete the purchase.

We chose Amazon.com for this beta feature because interfacing with their systems was the easiest. Linking to other vendors is possible, and we will explore other options if users tell us that this is a worthwhile service.

Please let us know what you think. Is this feature worthwhile? Send your comments to beta@nejm.org
