“The authors of this interesting monograph are concerned with purely metric aspects of fixed point theory. … this book can serve not only as a timely introduction to metric fixed point theory, but also as a catalyst for further research in this fertile area.” (Simeon Reich, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2015)“The book is clearly written and contains a very good selection of results in this rapidly growing area of research – fixed points in metric spaces and their generalizations. The sources of the presented results are carefully mentioned as well as references to related results and further investigation … . an essential reference tool for researchers working in fixed point theory as well as for those interested in applications of metric spaces and their generalizations to other areas … .” (S. Cobzaş, Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyia, Mathematica, Vol. 60 (1), 2015)“This monograph treats the purely metric aspects of fixed point theory. … This book provides a concise accessible document as an introduction to the metric fixed point theory for readers interested in this area.” (In-Sook Kim, zbMATH 1308.58001, 2015)
