520    "Dimension three is an important test-bed for hypotheses 
       in higher category theory and occupies something of a 
       unique position in the categorical landscape. At the heart
       of matters is the coherence theorem, of which this book 
       provides a definitive treatment, as well as covering 
       related results. Along the way the author treats such 
       material as the Gray tensor product and gives a 
       construction of the fundamental 3-groupoid of a space. The
       book serves as a comprehensive introduction, covering 
       essential material for any student of coherence and 
       assuming only a basic understanding of higher category 
       theory. It is also a reference point for many key concepts
       in the field and therefore a vital resource for 
       researchers wishing to apply higher categories or 
       coherence results in fields such as algebraic topology or 
       theoretical computer science"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    "In the study of higher categories, dimension three 
       occupies an interesting position on the landscape of 
       higher dimensional category theory. From the perspective 
       of a "hands-on" approach to defining weak n-categories, 
       tricategories represent the most complicated kind of 
       higher category that the community at large seems 
       comfortable working with."--|cProvided by publisher.
