It deciphers the alphabet soup of international organizations and provides essential basic information on countries Dennis Jett, Professor of International Affairs, Penn State University For more than a century and a half The Statesmans Yearbook has provided scholars and practitioners with reliable and accurate political and economic information about the ever more complex world in which we live. Even in the age of the internet such a balanced and trustworthy resource remains essential. Roger E. Kanet, University of Miami and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (retd) Over 1,000 pages of essential facts. Just as current but more reliable than the internet, I consult it almost daily.
