Recenzje

There is evidence of an extremely impressive array of a very appropriate variety of sources being utilised to splendid effect. This is a book that will stand the test of time and will be referred to again and again over the following number of decades. The world of academia is on terra firma with this work. Regarding this book, tedium never enters the reader's mind -- it engages, it entrusts a great deal of empathy with the reader, and its munificence bears testimony to first-rate scholarship.
