Almost 200 entries from the first edition 2004 were revised and updated for this edition, along with the addition of more than 150 new entries. The set begins with a short introduction and a listing of related topics arranged into eight broad topics. Entries are typically a page or two in length, and topics covered include both historical and modern customs pertaining to subjects such as ceremonies, costumes, customs, laws, religions, and more. Examples of entries include Bigamy, Dowry, Rice, and Vows. The entries are well written and easily accessible, making this suitable for high-school students. In addition, a wide variety of countries are covered, which students will find useful. There are many interesting facts found here: it was once a common tradition to distribute gloves to wedding guests, and in certain parts of Greece, as a part of prewedding rituals, a special dough is made that is smeared on the faces of the bride and groom. Each of the entries concludes with a list of cross-references to relevant articles in addition to a list of article-specific references. Black-and-white photographs and illustrations appear sporadically throughout the text. As little is published on this subject, this set would be a good addition to public and academic libraries. As a reference book it would be very good in academic and public libraries. It could also be used as a text for comparative marriage customs.
