Description

For those wishing to contact specialists in 177 fields from acoustics to zoology anywhere in the world from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, this volume is a good resource. This iteration amends earlier editions, as well as adding some 1,400 new associations and societies for a total of approximately 17,000 entries listed alphabetically within each country. Each entry contains the following information as of October 31, 1997 collected by questionnaire and other sources: association name, address, telephone, telefax, e-mail address, year founded, number of members, president, general secretary, focus area, and periodical publications. The foreword and areas of specialization are bilingual in English and German. Indexed by association name, subject, and publication. Address collections for all subjects are noted to be available electronically from the publisher.
