new Amazon search

Seen the new search on Amazon?

It now indexes the content of books and returns in the result.
Much harder to find books this way I feel.

Since I sell on Amazon, don't like it. It returns too much information, pieces and parts of books, instead of titles.

They should have an option to disable it, and search the old way.

Plus it shows you the page before and the page after. Cookbook authors are up in arms because you don't need to buy the book to look up any recipe you want. For what it's worth, many librarians don't like the new search either. It returns an unfocussed mess that makes searching more difficult.
