The book is a monograph written in the style of an essay that is scientific in language and presentation and does not use formalism or equations to convey the points. It is very clear and brief and obviously written by an author who has been deeply involved with the field for quite some time already. It has some end-of-chapter references to books and publications, and a glossary that explains the main terminology. This, together with the absence of mathematics, makes it accessible to a broad readership in principle, although it takes some amount of knowledge about the topics under discussion to fully be able to appreciate the book. Manuel Vogel, CONTEMPORARY PHYSICS, November 2022
