Misinfomedia Bleatannica.Have 30 volumes of this so called "Encyclopaedia".Cannot say that it is useless, certainly not!But it has huge number of mistakes, false information and simply disinformation.Not to speak about strange "Taste" of editors. For instance brilliant actress Vivien Leigh was not honored to be included in this book. But real whore dancer of Can-Can surely had the honor to be included! N.I.Vavilov, Russian genetic scientist is presented, but his brother, very prominent physicist -- does not. Here Bleatannica made additional idiotic "mistake", even two: On the attached picture appear NOT genetic-scientist, but his well known brother Sergey Vavilov with intriguing explanation: Picture by UNKNOWN painter! When in reality it is well known photography of Sergey Vavilov which could be seen in any book of physical optics! Resort city in Lithuania moved by authors of "Encyclopedia" to nearby republic of Latvia and so on, and on, and on...HEROSTRATUS -- whether anybody knows this name? In Russia every schoolchild knows it! But Webster Dictionary of more than 450.000 words DOES NOT! As well as so called Encyclopaedia Bleatannica! This notorious name does not exist for "scientists", who wrote historical articles for Bleatannica! At the same time they know every moment of the life of whore who danced first Cancan! What deep knowledge they have!!!But the worse is -- that if you made attempt to fix those idiotic negligence and mistakes Mr/Mrs. editor board answers you: WE HAVE OUR OWN EDITORS AND PROFESSIONALS to do all the needed.That why I call it "BLEATANNICA"!
