Following an introduction and tribute to Peter on his retirement, the text is contributed by an international team of acknowledged leaders in their fields, and focuses on four key themes that have preoccupied Peter during his career and that remain of pre-eminent importance for the future of the profession:

libraries, learning and distance learning

changing directions of information delivery

performance, quality and leadership.

The book concludes with a comprehensive bibliography of Peter's work.
