About this Item

Paperback. it has been our aim in a single volume of substantial size an adequare global survey which will be useful for most quick reference purposes for professional and educational users. The cross-referencing of entries should facilitate browsing and enable the reader to explore connections between personalities and topics. It is an important feature of the dictionary that it draws on Chamber's wextensive biographical expertise, supplementing this information with wide-ranging topic entries. Every effot has been made to avoid a purely Eurocentric balance of entries. We have endeavouted to be even-handed between continents and cultures, giving as much or more coverage to matters American as, for example, British. In European entries we have consciously stiven to provide a more extensive coverage of Eastern Europe than has hitherto been usual in general works, not least in the light of recent events. 996 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
