and handbooks. It sets out to provide students, researchers and non-specialists alike with
a sure grounding in current knowledge, together with comprehensible access to the latest

Emphasis is placed on clear and explanatory styles that support a tutorial approach, so that
even the most complex of topics is presented in a lucid and intelligible manner.
