1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected from Britannica, May 14, 2005

By	Joshua Goodman "History Buff" (Southern California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This software is, in a nutshell, mediocre. It seems that not much thought was put into the program. I mean, come on...at least have full screen multimedia video clips..not cheesy little scenes that you could view on your cell phone screen.

All in all, I'm definitely not impressed...as far as content, what I read so far seemed fine, it's just that the design and layout of the interface was very poorly configured.

1.0 out of 5 stars A retread, June 7, 2006

By	W. ANDERSON (Wisconsin, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love the Encyclopedia Britannica, I have it on my bookshelf and on my computer, the DVD is one of my very favorite pieces of software and is a great buy. But this 'book' is merely the articles related to the subject pulled from the Encyclopedia Britannica, it is a collection of articles and not really a book at all. Very little if any thing in this 'book' is unique, nearly everything in it can be found in the Encyclopedia. The Britannica company has pulled a fast one with software books like this one, they cut a small piece from their Encyclopedia and sell it at an inflated price. It doesn't make any sense to buy these little marked up software pieces, when the whole can be had for less than the sum of it's parts.
