'A thoroughly worthwhile book … serious discussion of Renner's work is long overdue in the English-speaking world … the publication of an English translation of Renner's essay would in itself be sufficient justification for this volume … Nimni does a heroic job in his introduction trying to explain the rationale and context of Renner's NCA model.' - Bruce Haddock, Cardiff University, UK
