"...Poland, more than most places, can only be understood after examining a long and often tumultuous history, from the origins, to the temporary disappearance, to the rebirth and repeated mutation. Beyond history and politics, it is essential to consider the economy, society, culture, and religion. After summing up in a brief introduction, nearly four hundred entries focus on crucial persons, places, events, institutions, and so on. They can more readily be inserted in the historical framework thanks to a comprehensive chronology and lists of rulers and leaders. There is also a list of acronyms from the communist and post-communist eras, which is essential to follow the literature. And an extensive bibliography directs readers to further sources of information."
