Boolean searches allow you to combine words and phrases using the words AND, OR, NOT and NEAR (otherwise known as Boolean operators) to limit, widen, or define your search. Most internet search engines and Web directories default to these Boolean search parameters anyway, but a good Web searcher should know how to use basic Boolean operators.

That refers to operations such as AND, OR, XOR, NOT, and others. What they have in common is that they work on boolean variables, and produce a boolean result. A boolean variable is one that can only have one of of two values, usually called "true" and "false".
