The work reflects the Everyman tradition of making scholarship affordable and portable, offering concise articles that balance factual precision with breadth of coverage. Its mid‑twentieth‑century perspective captures both enduring academic consensus and the period’s cultural priorities, making it as much a historical artefact as a working reference.
