search for any word inside the text of a book....and it'll give you the list of books, and even an excerpt of how it was referenced..

if you have a pretty unique last name...might be able to see if you're published =)

It works. My friend wrote this (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0471403989/ref=sib_vae_dp/103-8031023-9487865?no=283155&st=books&me=ATVPDKIKX0DER) book, and he included my name. It's at the top of the list when I do a search.
