Interesting and informative coverage of the events of 1967.

The 31st edition of the Britannica Book of the Year brings into your home detailed summaries of hundreds of major subjects-covering the arts, the humanities, the sciences. For your information, writers review the events of the year in economics, politics, religion, sports, music, literature, and the theatre, and introduce the year's most talked-about personalities.

Enhancing the informative text material are hundreds of photographs, ranging from artfully composed salon prints to dramatic on-the-spot "news" shots taken at the moment a story was breaking.

Statistics are made easily understandable by the use of diagrams, graphs, and tables. Many articles are illustrated by maps and charts, or by a penetrating cartoon.

Numerous subjects are interrelated, so parallel developments may be discussed under more than one heading. The editors, therefore, strongly recommend the use of the carefully compiled Index. The index supplies guides to all pertinent references, so that the reader may gain a wider view of the subject.

FEATURES, PICTURES, LOCATOR MAPS INDEX-with more than 3,500 listed subjects.
