Intl Dir Of Government 1990 (International Directory Of Government)

A major new reference from Europa, providing detailed information on every government in the world (c.1990). Each of the more than 200 countries and territories is covered by a separate chapter which contains: notes on the head of state; an explanation of the country's legislature; details of ministries, government departments and their connected bodies; and nationalized industries and government agencies arranged by subject heading (e.g. agricultural associations, banks, trade organizations, energy, tourism). Each individual entry (some 10,000 altogether) includes names of principal officials, directory information including telephone, telex and fax numbers where appropriate, plus an outline of each ministry's or organization's activities. Nice production on heavy paper in a rugged binding suitable for heavy reference use. Distributed in North America by Taylor & Francis. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
