Abstract

I don’t intend to draw the strands of the research together in this book to any great extent unless it adds to my own narrative. The authors have done this very ably in both Chapter 1 and Chapter 12. However it is worth commenting on the elements that make up the two books in this series (of which this is the second) and ask whether they can stand on their own or if they are inseparable.
