Praise for previous editions:

'A very good book, best on the market.' - Helena Gourko, Merrimack College, USA

'There is no competition for this book. It is a nearly perfect introductory textbook in my considered estimation.' - Dell deChant, University of South Florida, USA

'The author’s approach is purely descriptive, which allows me to provide my own interpretation of the material during lecture. I like the historical approach of the text. That provides the text with an orderly structure of the material.' - Curtis Smith, Pennsylvania State University, USA
