Handbook of Metric Fixed Point Theory

`
...a wide, up to date and complete presentation of the subject. ...the book appears uniform in style and in the organization of the chapters unncecessary repetitions are practically absent. The large number of authors certainly helped make it possible to treat all the topics presented with the scope and detail that only specialists in the specific subfields can guarantee. Each chapter begins with either a clear and complete exposition of the basic results in its subject area or with the necessary background to get to basic results, then it enters into more specialized results and ends with an exhaustive list of references. ...valuable and agreeable to a large group of mathematicians. For researchers ... a comprehensive reference ... useful for a broad knowledge and understanding of metric fixed point theory. ...editors have succeeded admirably in producing a handbook, not just a collection of papers...
