      The paper presents several results on perfect Delaunay polytopes. Using the sections of the Leech lattice as the main tool, the authors {\parindent=5mm \begin{itemize}\item[{\(-\)}] find lattices with several orbits of perfect Delaunay polytopes, \item[{\(-\)}] study Delaunay polytopes that remain Delaunay in certain superlattices, \item[{\(-\)}] find perfect Delaunay polytopes with small automorphism group (relative to the automorphism group of the lattice), \item[{\(-\)}] prove that some perfect Delaunay polytopes have lamination number five, \item[{\(-\)}] classify the types of perfect Delaunay polytopes obtained by a certain laminated construction, \item[{\(-\)}] derive an upper bound for the covering radius of \(\Lambda_{24}(v)^{\ast}\) which generalises the Smith bound and prove that this bound is met only by \(\Lambda_{23}^\ast\). \end{itemize}} The paper is very well written and gives a detailed introduction to the subject.
