✦ Synopsis
This publication comes along to help us all out of the accumulating alphabet soup. Growing out of two (of the three) authors' work on a more general dictionary a couple of years ago, this 217-page guide includes over 10,000 acronyms, stressing those used in the United Kingdom and the United States, but some others as well. The citations provide not only what the acronym actually stands for, but also a sense of where it came from and how it is used.
