H.W. Wilson Announces — The Car and Its Future

New Reference Shelf Volume Looks at What's New and What's Next for the American Auto

New York, New York, October 20th, 2004
The specter of permanently high fuel costs and auto industry response is just one of many issues covered in The Car and Its Future, new in H.W. Wilson's Reference Shelf book series. This is an in-depth examination of automotive trends and technology from a variety of perspectives: how today's drivers shop for, purchase, and use their cars; the psychology and technology of vehicle design; safety issues; the insurance industry; the auto industry around the world; and the viability of alternative fuels.

The Car and Its Future is the fifth of six books in The Reference Shelf 2004 series. Four others, The United States Election System, Homeland Security, U.S. National Debate Topic 2004-2005: The United Nations, and The Two Koreas, were published earlier in 2004. One other is forthcoming: Representative American Speeches 2003-2004. Libraries that order the complete 6-volume set receive a substantial discount.

Each book in The Reference Shelf series offers extensive exploration of a current topic of importance in modern society, in a compilation of notable articles from respected publications, plus abstracts of 20 to 30 additional articles and a bibliography of other sources. Reference Shelf volumes provide a well-rounded, non-biased overview for researchers and general readers. The Reference Shelf 2005 will include The European Union; Free Trade; The United States Supreme Court; Women's Rights; a volume dedicated to the U.S. National Debate Topic 2005-06; and Representative American Speeches 2004-2005.

Review copies of Reference Shelf volumes are available for members of the press.
