Customer Reviews

Intelligent, clear, helpful

The book first appeared over 30 years ago (and the author died in 1991) but it is still a clear, economical, and patient examination of a wildly difficult field. It lacks the flamboyance of some other works and there are nits to pick, but its aim is to be helpful, not startling, and as such it should be welcomed as a supplement by relative beginners and other curious souls. Though dated (how can it not be?) it is even-toned and not at all dull.
