Reference list is incomplete
Six of the works cited in the chapter body do not appear in its own further-reading list, and the list gives short-form citations only. Full bibliographic details are needed before publication.
Note also that Gearda et al. (2013) may be a misspelling; the spelling should be confirmed against the original source.

A consolidated reference list for the whole handbook is in the References chapter.
