Great Reference Book to have on the Shelf every year to have quick access to updated information & history

Each year for over a quarter of a century I've been purchasing this reference book. It provides information on US history, recent and historical events, foreign countries, financial statistics, entertainment, US and world geography, and a number of other categories in a compact format. In my opinion it's unsurpassed.

I've been reading this publication since 1982, and the world has changed with it. However, this edition for the first time, doesn't seem to include business industry leaders in corporations, and the Area Codes no longer identify a specific area in a specific state (except those of New Hampshire or Vermont) which I miss. I assume people now text or email for a response. I'll save The 2024 addition if I wish to make contact with that company or individual. There is no President of Spain (The Country has a King and Prime Minister noted in history text), and this as appeared in this edition and the last (2024), Head of Government Title of one country is in regular text and should be in bold text. Toms River, New Jersey has more than one Zip Code and an Asterisk needs to be added. Otherwise, a good reference book for all.

Great reference for the year.

I've been buying these books for a few years now and I've always found them to be an excellent source of all sorts of current and easily accessible information. Equality important in this day and age of who can out-lie whom in the media, is that the information is factual! How about that for a change?
