This is one of those intelligent and scholarly gems that showcases the vast knowledge of its authors and pulls together a lot of material from a collection of sources and from many countries. It contains many examples of the short story and it begins with an 18 page introduction to the short story by Constance Rooke. **Part 1** contains short stories filed by author. **Part 2** is called Symposium on Stories and contains reflections on the short stories via the writers of the stories and other writers and thinkers - some are essays, some are interviews or other formats. **Part 3** is called Casebooks and contains supplementary information that the authors felt deserved another section. The **Appendixes** contain information on the history of the short story form, reflections on the impossibility of defining the story, and a section on the elements of fiction. The authors have put a lot of work into this fascinating and wide reaching work and it deserves a wide readership.
