Pressezitat
"This second edition discusses the 23rd edition (DDC23)…One difference in the two editions is each chapter in the second edition begins with an abstract of the chapter and a list of key words."--Technicalities "...essentially an updating of the first edition. lt is 102 pages longer than the first edition, which is parti y due to the larger typeface in the second edition and a better design of the content." --Technicalities, Jul-Aug 2014
"...a very thorough and methodical work that goes beyond merely explaining the process of assigning numbers to explaining which procedure to follow in the case of specialised subjects with multiple topics...factual and informative without being dry."--Australian Library Journal, Vol 63, No 4
