INTRODUCTION

Established in 1993, The Probert Encyclopaedia is one of the World Wide Web's longest running, largest and most celebrated independant encyclopaedias famed for its originality, reliability and integrity. Because we are independant we can be different. The Probert Encyclopaedia strives to provide accurate, reliable information. We don't accept unsolicited contributions and we don't shy away from controversy.

The Probert Encyclopaedia is a fully searchable encyclopedia and English dictionary, and you can browse the various subject sections using the navigation menu to the left. Each article is fully hyperlinked to associated articles, and related articles can be retrieved with a single mouse click by selecting the 'Research' link at the end of the topic.

A sample topic is displayed below:
