With its wealth of maps, diagrams and a unique Ready-Reference section, no other paperback encyclopedia offers such comprehensive, up-to-date coverage - or such incredible value for money. • Over 19,000 entries • 100-page Ready Reference section • 570 maps, panels and drawings • 26,000 cross-references enabling rapid information retrieval • Over 100 internationally-renowned contributors
