[OS X TeX] \inbook in BiBTex

[Nitecki, Zbigniew H.]

I am getting unexpected behavior when using the \inbook field in BbBTex.

My .bib file has the following entries (one after the other, though that should be irrelevant):

@inbook{Epple:2003,
title={{The end of the science of quantity: foundations of analysis, 1860-1910}},
author={Moritz Epple},
crossref={AnalysisHistory},
pages={291-323}
}

@book{AnalysisHistory,
title={{A History of Analysis}},
booktitle={{A History of Analysis}},
editor={Hans Niels Jahnke},
publisher={American Mathematical Society},
year={2003}
}


The output from this is

which doesn’t make sense: it should at least give the title of the book in which this “in book” appears, if not also the editor of the collection in which it appears.  I get an error message when trying to print which says you can’t have both an author and an editor in this entry.
