Combining Ideas
Now it's
time to put it all together. Constructing a search using Boolean
operators is a little like setting up a mathematical equation.
Whenever you have more than one Boolean operator, such as AND and
OR, it is necessary to separate them with parentheses. This tells
the database the proper sequence in which to search for the
keywords.

won't look exactly like this, they all follow the same general
principles.
