A useful guide to double check how to properly cite your works in Chicago Style. However, most of the book is information that is not needed; I only used the quick citation guide. ( ) Indispensable for the writer in the Humanities, especially history. Not as comprehensive as Chicago, but short and easy to use. The newest edition has two color fonts that helps subject headings and citation examples stand out, but the new numbering system is a bit unhandy. (I mean, at one point: "17.8.3.5"! That's unhandy!) The internet citations are spruced up a bit. (I still hate the inclusion of the "author-date" system, but it appears only history and art history still use bibliographies and footnotes.) For the first time the index references the subject headings and not page numbers. Why still a four-star review? I looked up how to cite a map: 16.2.3, 16.4.3.1, 17.8.1 - in none of those are maps specifically mentioned or treated. And still, maps are treated as ephemeral reference works, and not true sources. (This angers a map historian like me, and most cartographic history journals have their own citation style for maps.) Still, even with citation programs like Zotero out there, you must have Turabian on the shelf (not just for citations, but pesky grammar and style issues.)
Turabian remains an indispensable guide for student researchers, particularly in the humanities and social sciences. . . . Writers and researchers, beginning or seasoned, thus owe a great debt to the publishers who are committed to keeping style guides current amid continuous evolution of the act—and art—of research.

"This new edition of the classic reference work on writing research papers recognizes recent developments in information literacy--including finding, evaluating, and citing a wide range of digital sources--and the evolving use of software for citation management, graphics, and paper format and submission while continuing to reflect best practices for research and writing, as adapted from the most recent editions of The Craft of Research and The Chicago Manual of Style."--Provided by publisher.
