This review is from: Britannica Concise Encyclopedia (Hardcover)
Good (print) encyclopedias are hard to find these days. The Britannica is one of the best. Excellent articles, no wasted words, a fine buy at the price. I sent one to my daughter after she admired mine. I rate it a 10 out of 10

This review is from: Britannica Concise Encyclopedia (Hardcover)
This "Britannica Concise Encyclopedia" is really concise although it is still very thick (about 2100 pages, and 2 columns/page). It contains large information about many broad subjects such as Arts, Business, Computers, Geography, History, Literature, Medicine, Philosophy, Politics, Pop Culture, Science, and Sports. However, it does not have much specific natural sciences: Mathematics, Chemistry or Physics (nevertheless, computer and science are there). In short, this is a good one-volume encyclopedia.
