The book is very well edited and structured. Each chapter begins with a preface, where the authors situate their works within the larger scholarly trends and oftentimes their own work on the topic, before transitioning to a separate introduction. Each chapter also has its own extensive and up-to-date bibliography (sometimes including works published in the same calendar year).
