The book also includes a bibliography of Donner's works and a biographical sketch of sorts. Taken together; these essays are a clear testament to Donner's wide-ranging and continuing impact on the field. Contributors include: Sean W. Anthony; Jonathan A. C. Brown; David Cook; Vaness De Gifis; Asa Eger; Tracy Hoffman; Marion H. Katz; Kathryn M. Kueny; Shari Lowin; Jens Scheiner; Robert Schick; Stuart Sears; Elizabeth Urban; Tasha Vorderstrasse; Brannon Wheeler; and Hayrettin Yucesoy.
