Now in its fourth edition, the Directory for the Environment (Greenprint,
pp 294, £15.99 pbk) offers a guide to campaigns and organisations
involved in environmental issues. Rich in information, its indices are irritating
– one lists acronyms, one groups entries under subject headings but omits
page numbers and another lists all the groups whose addresses appear in
the directory. So trying to discover who is concerned with protecting owls
in Britain is made difficult because the main index lists only a species
of owl, not the genus and if you’re interested in spiders, you will have
to scan through two sections to reach the British Arachnological Society.
Cross referencing is helpful – and not that difficult with a computer.
