A superb new edition of the single most indispensable reference volume with new and larger type and bolder boldface; with close to 800 more pages; with 400 new illustrations integrated with the text; with 44 tables of all kinds (Nobel Prize winners; major fashion designers); with identification of all proper names in the Bible; with 40,000 bibliographic references at the end of the major articles (there are 7000 completely new ones) and 66,000 cross references. Thumb-indexed format, the same size as the last edition, printed on Bible paper. The perfect acquisition for individual or institution.
