Besides the editors, Predrag Piper and Milorad Radovanović, this collection of sholarly articles also fetures: Dragoljub Petrovic, Zuzana Topolinjska, Sasmina Grković-Major, Aleksandar Mladenović, Darinka Gortan-Premk, Rajna Dragićević, Sofija Miloradović and Milena Marković. The editors write in their preface: ”There are bodies of sholarly work so diverse and multi-faceted that they can hardly be grasped by a single person, so large that they can hardly be graded by a single hand, but whose overall significance would nevertheless remain insufficiently visible and rcognized if no attempt were made to introduce them, at least competently and in general features, in a single place. The open schoarly and scientific opus of Milka Ivić belongs among such bodies of sholarship. In this book, her own collaborators, almost all of whom were, at one time or another, her students, write about directions, outcomes, and echoes of her researches… In addition to being motivated by sholarly needs, this book is also en expression of gratitude, love, and respect felt by disciples, collaborators, and friends of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts member, Milka Ivić
