Review
The authors have come up with what is both a reference work that can be consulted for factual information and also a mine of practical background material that is informative as well as highly readable. 'Unputdownable' is not a word you'd expect to find in this context, but it's hard not to read beyond what you originally opened it for. * The Artist *
