"The authors have done a very good job of collecting material scattered in the literature, and have been very precise in attributing results to the original authors. The book also contains an impressive number of examples and references." Mathematical Reviews "The present book provides a comprehensive, self-contained introduction to the modern theory of one-parameter semigroups, their stationary points and limiting behaviour. The reviewer strongly recommends the book to researchers who would like to become familiar with the area. The book is well-written and the material nicely presented. This book could also provide, either in total or in part, the basis of a graduate course in the theory of iterations and/or semigroups of holomorphic mappings." Zentralblatt MATH
