From the reviews:
“The book is devoted to the study of properties of Fox’s H-function and to the description of modern applications of this function. … also contains an extended Bibliography on the subject, a Glossary of Symbols, and Indexes. … combines the features of a research monograph, a table of special functions, as well as of a textbook for those who intend to apply the properties of the H-function in their research.” (Sergei V. Rogosin, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1181, 2010)
“It is fairly comprehensive, competently researched, and as thoroughly up-to-date as a book can be, as well as being well organized, very well and very clearly written, authoritative and useful. … easily accessible to a beginner in the field as well as extremely valuable reference source for those who know the matter well. … It is an ideal book for those wishing to start research in this area and it can be used readily as a textbook in a one-semester graduate course on H-functions.” (Djurdje Cvijović, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 j)
