The ultimate authority on alphabet soup. Cited in BCL3 , Sheehy , and every competent bibliography on the topic. Volumes 2 & 3 cover "New acronyms ..." & "Reverse Acronyms." Beware the BiP PLUS data: this ISBN is priced at "$28.00", and under a fanciful ISBNumber, one can find it at $335.00. Here are some 18,000 new entries bringing the work to a total of 64,000. With such growth and no attrition (any entry of any age may be needed to interpret a reference of that time) the obvious choice is, or soon will be, the electronic version; Gale offers both magnetic tape and disk (800-877-4253). Whatever the medium every collection needs access to data in such diverse fields as atomic physics and New Age, politics and virtue. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
