Recenzii

"The works are all accessible to the nonexpert..., and generally focus on providing a sound introduction to their topic. An interesting feature of the work that reflects its intended use as textbook: each chapter is followed by a series of discussion questions that deal with the chapter topic. Recommended."
-- J. L. Mikesell, Indiana University--Bloomington, CHOICE
