In an endlessly changing world the annual publication of The Statesman's Yearbook gives you all of the information you need in one easily digestible single volume. It will save hours of research and cross-referencing between different sources, and it is an essential annual purchase.

The Statesman's Yearbook Avis

'We ourselves rely on information found in The Statesman's Yearbook because of the great care [taken] in maintaining the highest standards of accuracy.' - Jose Banaag, Bureau of Public Information, UNESCO 'On the desert island of the imagination this title should certainly be up there with the Bible and Shakespeare.' - Parliamentary Maritime Review 'A classic reference work.' - Reference Reviews 'Perfect Companion.' - The Times 'You need more than one of everything because no information is value-free - except perhaps in [Palgrave's] annual The Statesman's Yearbook ... a masterpiece of pure quantification.' - Daily Telegraph (Victoria Glendinning's choice of Top Reference Book) 'The book should be in every office which is concerned with world trade and, indeed, in every school which produces the future traders. It is an essential tool of all global thinking.' - Geographical Magazine 'This venerable reference work remains as indispensable as ever before...the information contained in this one volume is prodigious and if a researcher could only have one volume to hand, this would be it.' - Contemporary Review 'In a volatile political world, this annual publication brings a sane voice to its presentation of the vital information every diplomat needs. And all in one volume. An essential purchase.' - London Diplomat 'one of the most important reference works in the language' - Parliamentary Maritime Review
