Abstract

These papers are published largely as they appeared in the 2003 edition. Chapter authors were invited to write a note explaining how things have developed since 2003 or setting the context in which the 2003 chapter was written. These notes are included at the start of each chapter. We would draw your attention to the long note added by Wright and McCarthy to Chap. 20 which in many ways sets the scene for the whole book.
