About this title

Synopsis

Containing over 700 quotations, from "Genesis" to the 1990s, this book offers an insight into society's changing attitudes. The dictionary's 13 sections each represent a different historical period. Each selection begins with an introduction to the period covered. The book is fully cross-referenced and is indexed by key word and subject. The quotations are organized into four main politics, government and world events; attitudes; sayings of the time; and with hindsight.
