Relative strengths of the schemes are discussed, although, since the authors of the individual chapters are mostly adherents of their respective programs, weaknesses aren't dwelt on. Written from a European, and primarily UK, perspective, there are chapters for developments in the North American and Asian markets. copyright Robert M.
