Praise
Atlantic Monthly
"The writing in this unusually handsome and functional 1,104-page volume ranges from clear if pedestrian to pithy and clever, and in fact the editors have brilliantly met the greatest challenge that such a project presents: reconciling depth and breadth." - Benjamin Schwarz December 2004
