Chambers Factfinder (3rd ed.)

摘要

"Factfinders" and other compendia of information are fun to review. How are the facts presented? Are they arranged alphabetically or in a classified order? Alphabetical within a thematic arrangement, or tabulated? With or without prose? And which facts are selected? We have a professional interest here; we who live our lives identifying, selecting, recording, arranging, presenting, finding and using facts. Thus we will look keenly, critically, and maybe admiringly, at how others do it.
