Pressestimmen

This is a handy reference book for scholars and laypersons alike...national leaders and officials will need this book as much as scholars. Oceana ...the updated materials are excellent, and the volume is recommended for all academic libraries... CHOICE The dictionary's strength's are in its representation of political, geographical and economic matters, and it is a very handy ready reference for readers who need accurate, concise histories of political parties, biographical details of significant individuals, and basic facts about important historical events...a valuable resource in itself. Pacific Affairs ...This book will be a welcome addition to the reference shelves of university libraries and most useful to beginning or browsing scholars. Bulletin Of Concerned Asian Scholars
