Manuscript Reviewers' Comments Jeff Dunkelberger: "Author has an excellent technical grasp. The material is clearly accurate and prepared with great care. The text is also well thought out, and flows well." Erik Olson , about Chapter 3: "The figures and tables were really strong here."Keith Walls , about Chapter 4: "This chapter certainly serves to eliminate any doubt as to the technical competence and mastery of the authors."Jeff Dunkelberger , about Chapter 5: "...was VERY enjoyable to read and clearly described and explained."Keith Walls , about Chapter 5: "Some of the more difficult ideas are defined and explained exceptionally well. The authors' skill in explaining the non-obvious is very clear. It's a pleasure to be "walked" through something very complex and come out the other side with a very complete and logically-based understanding of the ideas."
