An expansive single-volume reference combining the features of a chronology, encyclopaedia, and almanac. This ambitious new work covers not just trivia but essentials, not just the familiar but also the little-known, not just the local but the global. ""It is not a record of any one country's 20th century, but of every country's, and of the great worldwide events and trends that affected them all,"" promises the introduction. Chapter One: Chronology of the Century A timeline from 1900 to 1999, highlighting the most important milestones in every area of human activity around the world, from culture to politics to science to sports. Chapter Two: Events and Ideas of the Century A listing of more than 300 selected events, movements, trends, and concepts that defined the century. Chapter Three: People of the Century Concise biographies of 900 of the most important people of their times, including artists, philosophers, generals, and presidents. Chapter Four: Nations of the World A brief 20th-century history of every nation on earth, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, along with a chronology of leaders and other information. The main text is supplemented with charts, such as a list of all Nobel Prize Winners and battle and casualty tables for World Wars I and II. Cross-references also aid researchers. Two indexes complete the book: a traditional subject index and a year index.

Tradition and Change in the Nicaraguan Press presents a fascinating study of how journalists in contentious Nicaragua are overcoming political and economic barriers to better serve their readers in the 21st Century. A desperately poor Central American country, Nicaragua presents special obstacles to journalists, including low salaries, threats against freedom of the press, and a society ravaged by poverty, corruption and natural disasters such as 1998's Hurricane Mitch. Kris Kodrich uses a variety of qualitative and quantitative methods to examine journalists' behaviors and attitudes, and measures the professional and ethical impact of foreign influences at the nation's daily newspapers.

Thoroughly revised and expanded to reflect current developments in the field, this text is designed to provide the beginning student of library and information science with an overview of the most important tools for general reference work and the concepts and theory behind today's reference services. The 21 chapters are divided into two parts. The first 11 chapters deal with concepts and theory and are topical. They cover such areas as ethical aspects of reference services, reference interview, the principles and goals of library instruction, bibliographic control and search strategies, training and continuing education for reference staff, the evaluation of reference services, and the management of these services. In many cases, specific applications in different types of libraries are pointed out. Expanded coverage of electronic reference service is provided by two full chapters devoted to basic principles and current trends in this area. A separate chapter covers unique approaches to reference service for special groups. Part 2 describes the general principles and sources for selecting and evaluating reference tools and the principles for building a reference collection. The remaining chapters discuss the characteristics and uses of particular types of reference tools. This new edition describes a greater number of titles of each type as well as the formulation of strategies for the effective use of specific sources or groups of sources. Scenarios in particular library settings conclude each chapter, offering realistic reference questions and appropriate search strategies. Throughout the text, boxes are used to highlight specific issues, concepts and search strategies that underlie contemporary reference services. Selected important sources for further reading are listed at the end of each chapter. This text presents the essential theory and practical knowledge necessary for an initial reference course. Its broad scope and organizational clarity should benefit students and practitioners alike.

An expose of the role of the US-based tobacco corporations Philip Morris and RJR Nabisco in aggressively promoting tobacco internationally, contributing to the deaths of 3.5 million people worldwide per year. Filled with examples of manipulation of public policy and big Tobacco's disregard for advertising restrictions in other countries, Global Aggression builds a case for a combination of consumer pressure and world standards to stop the spread of tobacco-related diseases and hold tobacco transnationals accountable. From INFACT's 1998 Annual Report (now Corporate Accountability International)
