Review from Book News Inc.: Grouped into three categories, these papers cover topics ranging from the electrical discharge characteristics of polycrystalline diamonds to the use of game theory in negotiating slotting allowances. The volume contains relatively short peer-reviewed papers, which are described in the preface as a special topic volume. Almost all of the papers are from scholars at Chinese universities. The pieces appear to offer the latest research, and benefit from regular figures, tables and equations.
