    1 out of 5 stars Rotten encyclopaedia   October 13, 2003
    4 out of 7 found this review helpful

    The encyclopaedia's content is absolutely rotten. Never mind the interface, multimedia, etc. What defines the quality of an encyclopaedia is its CONTENT! Twenty some thousand skimpy articles in World Book, wot? Both Encarta and Britannica have more articles that are of longer length.

    World Book was created for infants and primary school students. If you're in 2ndary school or uni, this is nought but rubbish. I can't believe any self-respecting adult would give kudos to this.
