"materials received" is one of a few new sections in haijinx II:1. Our goal here is two-fold. First, we want to alert our readers to important new releases. More important, perhaps, is gathering materials for future reviews. So, this page contains a mixture of announcements relating to books, journals, and web pages.
Submission details can be found at the end.
[editor's note 2010: please verify these addresses and availability independently before ordering books.]
