# BibLaTeX: how to reverse order of volume and series?

I'm having trouble where volume is somehow appearing before series, possibly due to my own error. That is, I have

when I would really rather

[1] Da Prato, G., Zabczyk, J. (2014). Stochastic Equations in Infinite Dimensions. Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications, Vol. 152., Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

where the volume number 152 somehow appears before the series (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications). How can I reverse the order?

The MWE below is a hodgepodge of things I found on this site. Its the smallest I can comfortably make it, I'm not sure if it is truly the most minimal of MWEs. In particular, after removing everything after \makeatother, volume is still before series. I thought I should include the rest of it anyway in case I dont realise something interacts weirdly.

The reference:

@book{da2014stochastic,
title={Stochastic Equations in Infinite Dimensions},
author={Da Prato, Giuseppe and Zabczyk, Jerzy},
series = {Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications},
volume = {152},
year={2014},
location={Cambridge},
publisher={Cambridge University Press}
}


and my MWE:

• The part of a series is a number and not volume. – moewe Jan 22 '18 at 11:11
• @moewe oh, so the code is working 'as intended' and it is my @book... that is wrong? – Calvin Khor Jan 22 '18 at 11:14
• I should think so, yes. – moewe Jan 22 '18 at 11:15

The instalments of a series are numbered in the number field and not with volume. So you want
