I want to cite a book. I got the following bibliographic information from MathSciNet:
@book {Brylinski,
AUTHOR = {Brylinski, Jean-Luc},
TITLE = {Loop spaces, characteristic classes and geometric
quantization},
SERIES = {Progress in Mathematics},
VOLUME = {107},
PUBLISHER = {Birkh\"{a}user Boston, Inc., Boston, MA},
YEAR = {1993},
PAGES = {xvi+300},
ISBN = {0-8176-3644-7},
MRCLASS = {57Rxx (18G50 55P35 58F06)},
MRNUMBER = {1197353},
MRREVIEWER = {Daniel S. Freed},
DOI = {10.1007/978-0-8176-4731-5},
URL = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-8176-4731-5},}
Unfortunately, the formatted bibliographic entry does not show the number of pages (stored in the entry's pages
field). It comes out as
Jean-Luc Brylinski. Loop spaces, characteristic classes and geometric quantization, volume 107 of Progress in Mathematics. Birkhäuser Boston, Inc., Boston, MA, 1993.
What changes should I make so that it also mentions the number of pages?

? Why does some services include the entire abstract. Some may use it, some may not. That is all up to the style. Each bibstyle will for each entry type have a list of required fields, a list of optional fields (included if present, no error it is not present), the rest is ignored. Soplain

for@book
(which to me seems fair), another style may choose to include it. It is all down to the separation of the content and the formatting.
