A model of the kind of text one needs for lecture courses: the
translation is extremely readable and made even more accessible by
intelligent printing decisions (on dividing the text, spacing for
clarification, etc.); the notes are kept to a minimum but appear
when they are really needed for comprehension and are truly
informative. And the introduction admirably presents both basic
information and a sense of current scholarly opinion. --S. G.
