Reviews of previous editions: ‘This is a book that openly professes to be a ‘short practical text’ and it has achieved its objective very successfully indeed. Clearly set out with discreet well-organized chapters, the text is easy to read and presents a comprehensive overview of a difficult field in a ‘user-friendly’ form.’
