Editorial Reviews

A very competent overview of the literature which will give the reader a fair understanding of the approaches taken and a good knowledge of what'sorts of research have and have not been done. Clearly structured, plainly written and includes just enough detail and theory not to misrepresent theories but still remain accessible to its intended readership.
