Rezensionen

More than 180 cross-referenced entries cover important persons, events, institutions, politics, the economy, society, and culture. The easy-to-read entries are substantive... Along with an excellent bibliography are appendixes for kings, presidents, prime ministers, national election results, country facts, and economics. Recommended. CHOICE, April 2010 This work is for the student or researcher needing a quick reference to a particular modern Greek person, event, or place. It is recommended for collections that are acquiring the entire Historical Dictionaries of Europe series or that have an emphasis in the country or area. Booklist, January 2010 Academic libraries catering for courses in modern history, international relations, etc. who have found other volumes in this series useful will certainly find this worth considering.
