The material in first seven chapters is almost entirely standard, with the remaining four introducing progressively more open-ended issues, seducing the reader into beginning to think for himself about the properties of models or even to suggest problems that may intrigue the advanced student UR - http://uttyler.eblib.com/patron/FullRecord.aspx?p=1888719 ER -
