Reviews
CQ provides an accurate, impartial, organized directory to the executive branch of the US government. Sections include "Executive Office of the President," "Executive Departments," "Independent Agencies," "Quasi-official Organizations," "Biographies," "Subject Index,
and "Individual Index." "Executive Departments" includes helpful organizational charts prior to the subsections for each agency and most major offices, like those in the US Government Manual. While sketches in "Biographies" are inconsistent, it is one of the most appealing and useful sections. "Independent Agencies" and "Quasi-Official Organizations" also add great value. Several other substantive components include "Major Nominations Pending," and a two-page guide inside the front cover, "Tips for Using the Companion Web Site." A subscription to the print version of any of the CQ "Staff Directories" includes access to the online version, a significant bonus. An excellent reference source. Summing Up: Highly recommended. --E.A. Bounds, University of Utah.
