This is a compendium of essays about the book by a many scholars for an educated audience. Some of these essays are more general and some more specific. Some of the scholars--as is their wont--contradict each other occasionally. No doubt the essays are not the last word on a particular topic--one needs to read all the scholarship on that topic-no doubt many books. Having given all the caveats, if you are a book lover, this is a feast if you only like 50% of the topics and essays. It serves as a great introduction. My only caveat is that the print can be small if one's eyes are no longer young.
