Steve,

Is this a new edition? I saw a fairly old version of what I think is
the same book. It was encyclopedic in a way that might not be too
useful for most people; there was a kind of inefficiency in the
presentation of the relevant info -- "Researchers X and Y in Japan use
test a (long description), b (long desc.), c (l. d.), ...;" whereas W
and V in England use only b (same long description), c (...).....

Main point is: info wasn't at all proportional to the # of pages. But
let me know what edition it is.
