Search using keywords for your topic:

Instead of: gender differences in media
Try: gender AND media (the content should tell you about the differences)

Connect terms with AND, OR, NOT and use quotes around phrases:

Ex: your topic AND (diar* OR letter* OR interview* OR speech*)

Ebooks are great for broadly researched topics and often provide great background of a topic.
