This review is from: Martial Arts of the World: An Encyclopedia (2 Volume Set) (Library Binding)
"Martial Arts of the World: An Encyclopedia" by Thomas A. Green, associateprofessor of anthropology at Texas A&M, has been selected by the New York Public Library as one the of best reference books from 2001. The Best of Reference is an annual list of books, web sites and electronic resources selected by a committee of librarians for their usefulness in local branch collections. Selection criteria include value and appropriateness for branch collections, organization of material, style of presentation, and authority of author/editor. In this two-volume set, Green calls on both martial arts scholars and expert practitioners to contribute nearly 100 A-to-Z entries focusing on martial arts systems that exist outside contemporary military contexts. This is the second such award for Green's work. Earlier this year, "Martial Arts of the World" received a Reference and User Services Association (RUSA) award for Outstanding Reference Sources for 2002. |
