Dan Oriti is the editor. He gets a lot of credit for bringing together people from highly diverse approaches to QG.
Horowitz, Polchinski, Banks and Taylor are STRING
Loll, Ambjorn, Jurkiewicz and Williams are TRIANGULATIONS (CDT and Regge calculus)
Percacci is ASYMPTOTIC SAFETY
Sorkin and Henson are CAUSAL SETS
Rovelli, Thiemann, Livine, Perez, Freidel, Gambini and Pullin are LOOP
that is just a sample, I know I am missing some.
The title is
Approaches to Quantum Gravity:
Toward a New Understanding of Space, Time and Matter
Now that Cambridge University Press has it in the catalog and has set a definite publication date we can be pretty confident the book is going to come out. I was wondering when I didn't hear anything about it for a while.
