Haven't read the whole book, obviously, but it has been helpful for the occasional reference. None of these articles will be a sufficient source unto itself if you are writing a paper on one of these subjects, but no encyclopedia article ever is. There is a longer, 2 volume version which I believe has more thorough references for each article. Obviously the longer version would be better for those using the book for advanced research, but the paperback is more affordable!
