"Similar material is most often available in journals, but the book accomplishes a valuable service in drawing it together ... the one that will probably have the greatest utility and longest lifespan is the survey of B meson physics by I Bigi, V Khoze, N Uraltsev and A Sanda ... Bigi et al. here provide the most thorough and readable account of the issues that I know of. I have seen no review comparable to the excellent summary of electric dipole moments by S Barr and W Marciano ... the volume offers a generally readable entry into this field for a reader who has a basic background in particle physics."

"... this book performs a very useful service for anyone active or interested in CP violation, both as a source of primary information and as a work of reference."
