'Overall, this book is the most definitive of several recent volumes on the subject, and is comprehensive and at the same time accessible. Its readability is enhanced by occasional injections of provacativeness, and it is almost completely free of the rogue chapters that tend to find their way into multi-author volumes.' P. J. McKenna
