This book defies definitive classification. Many of the survey papers are what you would expect in a handbook: broad and sufficiently detailed overviews with substantial bibliographies for readers who want to go further. A few of the survey papers and case studies are more conceptual and theoretical, while some of the case or micro studies are rich and thought-provoking investigations. Everything is contemporary and the data and references are up to date as promised in the title. As such, the book offers a valuable entry point for students, journalists, and researchers in this field.
