The World Book Encyclopedia is an encyclopedia published in the United States. It is self-described as "the number-one selling print encyclopedia in the world." The encyclopedia is designed to cover major areas of knowledge uniformly, but it shows particular strength in scientific, technical, and medical subjects. It is based in Chicago, Illinois. The first edition contained eight volumes. New editions have since appeared every year except 1920, 1924, and 1932, with major revisions in 1929, 1933, 1960, 1971, and 1988 .The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: World Book Encyclopedia
