Contemporary Authors — Set/Series

"This is an academic work aimed at students from high school to university, and their teachers, as well as being of potential value to a wide range of researchers in many disciplines and fields of endeavor...a notable achievement in reference publishing. Either the whole set or selected individual volumes will be of value in a range of libraries from senior schools, through universities and public libraries to major media organizations. This volume marks a very meritorious and welcome anniversary."
