Updated every year this single volume general encyclopedia packs an enormous amount of information into its 22 sections of tightly packed pages. These include: Chronicle of events - historical and contemporary; Prominent people; Background to world affairs; Britain today; Economic events; General compendium; Ideas and beliefs; World of Art; The world of Music; The world of Science; Literary companion; Medical matters; Sporting Almanac; Computing and the Internet; The Cinema; General Information; Atlas of the World (32 plates). ARRANGEMENT: Each Section is assigned a letter. Within each section entries are arranged alphabetically or, in the case of Events for example, chronologically. Some sections also have a table of contents and some also have their own index and glossary. The common subject index refers to selective entries by Section, page and column numbers, but does not comprehensively index all subjects. |
