The most useful of this group of indexes for business researchers will probably be Social Sciences Citation Index. ISI covers the citations of articles written between 1980 and the present but the articles that are cited could be from much earlier. For example if you wrote an article in 1976 and someone cited it in an article in 1988 you could find out about the 1988 article. However you would not find out about an article written in 1979 that cited your 1976 article. A good general index covering over 2,700 journals and magazines form a wide variety of subject areas including general news, business, psychology, health, humanities, general sciences and more.
Journals range from scholarly to popular treatment of subject areas.
