'… a massive production and very thorough … the work is to be praised as a triumph of publishing technology as well as for sheer intelligence and rigour of co-operation between Crystal and his associates.' Anthony Burgess, 'Editor Crystal brings impressive credentials to the encyclopedia ... Scientific and technical subjects receive considerable attention ... a substantial Ready Reference section provides much compact information in tabular form on a wide range of subjects, including space exploration, the earth, major religious festivals, the nations of the world, political leaders of various countries, weights and measures, names and titles, awards, and sports.'

Used book's condition was about as described, mailed promptly with tracking and good communication. Offered a large atlas at a fair price. Very pleased with this seller and I would buy here again and recommend. Thanks!

The seller sent a copy of this antique book that was different from that pictured in the listing and which was in significantly worse condition than pictured. When I complained they offered to let me return it. However, it's a $10 book and the time and cost of returning it are not worth it. They ignored my follow up complaint and request. Most of the good used book sellers on ebay offer partial refunds in the same situation so I'll stick with them and not use this seller again.
