This is THE book on designing search for websites and software that designers should own. Comprehensive, well-researched and illustrated with lots of examples. Even touches on Augmented Reality and Near-Field Computing which I don't imagine getting to play with for a few years yet. Personalised search, social search, mobile search, recommendation systems ... it's all here.

Even beeing a couple of years old this books presents a great compilation of several things to take into account when designing search on ecommerce.
