Only searching in 'Introductions' and not the rest of a book

Is there anyway that a search can be done only in the 'Introductions' of a book? Or for that matter only within certain parts of a resource? Only in 'Authorship' 'Introduction' 'Provenance' etc?

For example. In my Collection for the book of Revelation I can obviously search all those resources. But how do I search only the Introductions in those resources?

The reason I ask is that some of my searches populate hundreds of hits many of witch (boo) do not have anything to do with my search.

    You cannot limit the search range to Introductions. Can you provide an example of a search you are performing? Perhaps there are parameters that could be used to limit the number of hits to those that are useful.

    You can try:

    letter AFTER heading:introduction

    letter AFTER heading:author*

       where the result will be confined to the article with that heading.

    You can combine results with:

    letter AFTER heading:introduction OR  letter AFTER heading:author*
