From the book reviews: "This is an excellent volume that will be of considerable use to anyone studying the European Neolithic. It is a useful first port of call for students and researchers finding their way into the relevant literature and key sites within a particular region, and it also offers an overview, both in the thematic papers and in the sum of the regional case histories, of the entire phenomenon across Europe."
