A small post script to my prior comment. Although I and our resident FLW
scholar were very impressed with the set, I agree with Ann that it is
not be a justifiable purchase for some due to its steep price. My review
in the Bulletin also includes a much cheaper general reference CD on FLW
which sells for $75 (FLW Companion). As always, it depends what use you
can make out of something, what the strengths of your department are,
and what other priorities you must serve within your budget.
