  2. PUBLICATION NOTES

    1. Bieber, Doris M., Dictionarv of Cicrrent Am,encan Legal Cita-tions, Abridged Edition With Esamples. Buffalo, Sew York: William S. Hein & Co., 1981. Pages: iii, 233. Price: $6.60 (paper-back). Publisher's address: William S. Hein & Co., Inc., 1286 Main Street, Buffalo, N.Y. 14209.

    This work, a pocketbook or handbook in size, is designed to supplement and accompany the well-known authority, A Cnbforni System of Citatton (1976), often called the Bluebook or Hamord Blue-book. The Bluebook explains the rule of citation, with some examples and Several lists of abbreviations and citation forms. Bieber's work is entirely a list of examples in two columns. The right-hand column on each page lists in alphabetical order a great variety oi law reviews and journals, legal newspapers, case report-er8, and other recurring legal publications. The left-hand column shows the abbreviation of the publication title, followed by one or more examples ai complete citations to particular case8, articles, or pages in the publication.

    The Dictionary lists most of the publications and citation forms that most legal scholars and practicing attorney8 are likely to need. It 16 probably less useful to the military attorney, however. Listed are West's Mtlitary Justtce Reporter, the Lawyers' Ca-operative Court.Martza1 Reports, and the old U.S.C.M.A. official reporter, as well as the Mtlitary Lau Reporter and the Navy's JAG Journal No mention IS made of The Army Lawyer, the .Military Lau Re-vieto, the Air Force Law Review, the Advocate, the old Judge Ad-meate Journal, or any military regulations, pamphlets, manuals, or other similar materials often cited in military practice. Of course, most of these are not set forth either in the Bluebook, from which the Diettonary takes its inspiration.

    The Dictionarg here noted is described as an abridgement of a larger *-ark. The editor of the .Military Law Rethis larger work and has no information about it, except that It U'BE

    published by Hein in 1979 and sells for $19.60. It may be that the larger work contains more military citation forms than the abridged edition

    The book offers an explanatory preface for the guidance of users. Typewriter typeface IS used, and pient>- of space is left between entries to promote ease of reading.

    The compiler and editor of this u-ork, Doris M. Bieber, is law 11-brarian at the Vanderbilt Legal Information Center and Law LIbrary, Nashville, Tennessee. She is co-author, with Igor I. Kavess, af "Energy and Congress: An Annotated Bibliography of Congres. mnal Hearings and Reports," published by Hein in 1974. Ms. Bieber is also the compiler of "Dictionary of Legal Abbreviations Used in American Law Books," published by Hem in paperback in 1979 and noted at 86 Mil. L. Rev 163 (fall 1979).
