Damn, this went to the must-order-immediately category. The index looks as promising as it can get (even though Vance seems oddly excluded?).
And as I had earlier filled my shopping basket with "wish I could buy these" books and didn't notice it before confirming the order, this was quite an expensive buy. :P
