Testers Opinion.. "It is a product that has been popular on the PC
                  for a number of years and has taken a surprisingly
                  long time to be converted for use on the Amiga. It
                  seems that this wait has been worthwhile since the
                  result is a highly polished product indeed."[...]
                  "In short, if you have a CD-ROM drive and the
                  vaguest of interests in the planet, then get this CD."

                  It's a translation of the printed encyclopedia, originally
                  written for the CD32 but compatible with the A1200. The
                  bold high resolution text and buttons can be read on even
                  the most fuzzy TV, and navigating around the numerous pages
                  is simplified with a straight-forward point-and-click 
                  interface. It's not overflowing with pictures, but there
                  are enough to maintain the visual interest.
