Reviews

The most comprehensive, definitive encyclopedic work on the UN. Completely overhauled, refreshed, reconstituted, revivified, this edition stands as a distinguished contribution to the reference literature in international affairs. The set is in a class by itself... Ambitiously rich... Essential. All international relations collections. <br>- Choice, May 2003 <br> An outstanding reference tool... This set is highly recommended to academic, medium to large public libraries, and any schools supporting active model U.N. programs. <br>- Lawrence Looks at Books, Gale Reference Reviews, March 2003 <br> Covers organizations not listed elsewhere... In addition it has terms and treaties that are not listed in other works. It is more scholarly and detailed than Facts On File's one-volume Encyclopedia of the United Nations, and large academic and public libraries will want to seriously consider it. <br>- Booklist/RBB, June 2003 <br>
