Review
…an important addition to your library's collection, a relevant resource for undergraduate and graduate student advisors, and perhaps a gift for the new librarian who will be working with your department.
-- Mathematical Intelligencer, vol 27, no. 2
…[H]ighly recommended for all math, science, and technology libraries at the undergraduate, graduate, and research institution level, [including] biology and life science collections … . Larger public libraries with science collections may find it useful to have this volume to identify materials for ILL retrieval or to support local math teachers.
