The demand for accurate information about the major trading nations of the world has dictated that professionals in every field, and particularly in business, have at their fingertips a resource work that provides up-to-date, accurate information that is highly organized and easy to use. The Henry Holt International Desk Reference: (A Guide to Essential Information Resources of the World's Major Trading Nations) is structured in reference form to provide the essential information one needs. It is organized by geographical region and by country. Covering the Americas, Asia and the Pacific Rim, Europe and Russia, and the Middle East and Africa, each country is divided into 28 sections directing the user to information on such topics as:

Agriculture Banking Business development
Consultants Imports/exports Laws
Politics Sales agents Social agents / tourism

The entries are highly annotated, providing descriptions of services, background information, addresses, telephone numbers, and more. In addition, there are detailed sections on how to use and get the most from the book, as well as a cross-referenced appendix making finding information easy.

The Henry Holt International Desk Reference is organized in four sections, each consisting of a region of the world. The chapters within each section are dedicated to individual countries in that part of the world. Within each country the specific subject headings are arranged alphabetically. If you are looking for cultural information about Singapore, for example, you can look in Section II, "Asia and the Pacific Rim," turn to the chapter on Singapore and look under the "Culture" heading:
