Reviews

`This is the 26th, the longest, and perhaps the best of an invaluable series of annually produced reference works ... the editing of the Yearbook (by C. Wall et al.) must be lauded for having resulted in an admirably laid out and almost error-free tome of some half-million words - including scores of detailed tables, charts, and increasing numbers of excellent maps (by B. Bielckus) - all under the enormous pressure of the relentless deadlines imposed by yearbook publication.' Security Dialogue `The SIPRI Yearbook has long been an essential tool for researchers in the field of international security. The 1995 edition is now available, much longer and more comprehensive than ever before.' International Security Dialogue `The 1995 edition of the SIPRI Yearbook is as invaluable as ever ... the whole work is meticulously documented, both with bibliographical references and appended documents.' NOD & Conversion `When Moses came down from mount Sinai with the ten commandments the chances are the somewhere on his person he also had a copy of the SIPRI Yearbook. Resplendent in its red cover and still tantalisingly thick, this venerable grandfather of books on international security remains, as it has always been, a definitive reference work on the subject, managing to skilfully navigate a safe and steady passage for its readers from the Cold War to the post-Cold War world. SIPRI has always had a reputation for covering the issues that matter. This year is no different ... Once again the SIPRI Yearbook has turned up trumps ... The fact is that SIPRI remains a serious reference work and is a mine of useful information. So much so, that while volatility may be the definitive characteristic in international politics today, the SIPRI Yearbook remains a beacon of stability in an uncertain world.' RUSI Journal
