In this interesting paper the authors present a formula for the volume of an arbitrary tetrahedron in a \(3\)-dimensional hyperbolic space. The formula uses the Lobachevsky function, the six dihedral angles of the tetrahedron and six further values that appear as the solution of a system of equations in terms of the dihedral angles. Several specific cases, including the Coxeter tetrahedra, are discussed in detail.
