This third edition includes advances in knowledge that have taken place in the last seven years. The new data and the information are integrated with information from the previous edition to form a consistent up-to-date analysis of the most important findings. In many instances new findings make previous understanding obsolete. Approximately 60% more information and about 80% more data have been added. The revision is based on the analysis of over 2000 research papers published since the previous edition. Four chapters have been added and many additional sections included in the former chapters.
