Rezensionen
"The editors have done a wonderful job of organizing the chapters within seven topic areas and have even included a list of suggested chapters should the handbook be used as a textbook. The intended readers are experts in the field, academics, and graduate and undergraduate students. Highly recommended." --Library Journal
