Editorial Reviews

Review

The Canadian Who's Who list of outstanding individuals will surely inspire...I know this research tool is regularly consulted everywhere, by those who make it a profession to bring the past to our...collective memory, as well as by those who, on the spur of the moment, may suddenly need information before meeting someone, before introducing them, before referring someone to a research committee, before writing an article, etc... Canadian Who's Who thus, for a long time, described the spirit of Canadians.
