Biography
Gustavo H. Goldman, Stephen A. Osmani
"The individual chapters are well-written, well-organized (with many very good figures and summary tables) and include recent data. I recommend this book, and it should be mandatory for those new to this field...this book would also be an excellecnt starting point for getting an overview of the current state of the field."
