This updated single-volume encyclopaedia has been expanded by more than 1000 original entries bringing it up to the end of the 20th century. Existing entries have been fully updated and geographical entries reflect the most recent political changes and population statistics.
The listing I purchased said it was a single volume encyclopedia (so I was expecting something quite thick) but the copy I received was thin, labeled as volume 2, and only contained partial entries for A and B words.
In addition, the copy I ordered was labeled “very good” condition, but the cover of this book was absolutely trashed. It was torn up, dented, scuffed, and stained. The damage to the book does not seem like it was done in transit to me, as the bag it was in looked relatively fine.
