Robert Postlethwaite

Alternatively, the book can be used as a reference work if you have a particular question to answer.The book is intended as practical guide rather than a highly detailed technical treatise. Its priority is to explain key issues in an accessible fashion and to raise awareness of where further exploration and advice may be important.
