States, and throughout the book the author makes intermittent use of non-American sources, thus introducing occasional international overtones of a kind not usually found in American records management literature. The book may have its imperfections, but it stands well ahead of its American competitors. Many of its readers may consider it the most useful textbook on records management (or, if they prefer, ‘records and information management’) published in the English language in the last 10 or 15 years.
