The Handbook of Mereology is the first and only comprehensive reference work for research on part-whole relations  or better, and quite appropriately, a substan-tive part thereof. The guiding idea of this collection of compact original contributions is to offer an inclusive presentation of contemporary research on part-whole relations that can draw out systematic, historical, and interdisciplinary trajectories, show the subjects fecundity, and inspire future explorations. In particular, the editors want to impress that mereology is much more than the study of axiomatized reasoning systems. The relationship between part and whole is one of the most basic schemata of cognitive organization that operates not only at the level of language processing and propositional thought, but also at the level of sensory input processing. The Handbook is not only addressed to philosophers, however. The included domain-specific investigations of part-whole relations can provide useful heuristics for researchers in various scientific disciplines (e.g., linguistics, cognitive science, psychology, biology, or chemistry). There are of course a good many entries exploring and explaining the meta-mathematical interest of formal mereology. But the Handbook also features several contributions that convey the richness and complexity of linguistic encodings of part-whole relations, as well as where and how our common sense reasoning departs from the classical formalizations of part-whole relationships that influence much of the contemporary ontological discussion. A considerable portion of the historical dimension of mereology could be documented, especially with respect to the medieval period. The contributions to the Handbook are written by internationally renowned specialists but accessible to an interdisciplinary readership  many of them not only report the state of the art but present new original research that is not available elsewhere.
