This book is monumental in every sense of the word. Before he had the opportunity to complete and publish his project, the final stages of which had occupied him for the past decade, Pierre Gloor suffered a stroke in 1994 that rendered him aphasic. In what was undoubtedly a magnificent act of tribute, an editorial committee of his colleagues prepared the vast manuscript for publication.
