Selection Statement:

This book is a shining example of how to integrate the new and the old, reimagining and reinventing long-standing questions and concepts in light of more recent developments in theory, data, and method. The authors harness both the potential of new points of view and the advances in technology that have helped make those points of view possible, and also the power of concepts and theories developed over long years of careful study.
