“Homolka offers a knowledgeable and very readable overview over the engagement of Jewish scholars and intellectuals with the historical Jesus.” • Deutschlandfunk

	“The book is to be recommended…It provides a good overview of the most important ‘Jewish’ approaches to Jesus, which can serve to initiate further discussions and theological rethinking.” • Theologische Literaturzeitung

	“Perhaps the most significant contribution of the book is the chapter on Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict), whose trilogy on Jesus was largely ignored by Jewish scholars. Rabbi Homolka’s careful and thoughtful assessment of Pope Benedict’s views are important for Jews to read and understand. Rabbi Homolka’s book returns the discussion of “Jesus the Jew” to some of its original roots in Germany 150 years ago to a newly reconstituted twenty-first-century Jewish community there… required reading for those engaged in modern dialogue.” • Journal of Jewish Identities

	“…a brief and very helpful summary of a large body of scholarly work [that] includes an extensive and very useful bibliography.” • Journal of Ecumenical Studies

	“The book is well researched and is presented in a way that is accessible to any adult reader. This title would be appropriate for any collection serving an adult population.” • Association of Jewish Libraries Reviews

	“Homolka’s book is not only a very good introduction to an important topic, but it is also a kind of catalog with running comments on central theses and publications but also on studies in art history and literature on this topic.” • Christoph Marschkies, President of the Academy of Arts and Sciences Berlin-Brandenburg in Die Kirche

	“On the basis of integral bible hermeneutic the new Jewish interpretation of the Jew Jesus also is for us Christians a genuine enrichment.” • Henryk J. Muszyński, Archbishop emeritus of Gnesen/Gniezo, Poland

	“This book offers a constructive contribution to the debates on the theological significance of Jewish and Christian approaches to the historical Jesus. The author’s knowledge of Jewish and Christian discourses on both sides of the Atlantic is impressive.” • Werner G. Jeanrond, University of Oxford

"…the result of an exciting oral history project…this rich edited volume offers a compelling look at the meanings of the feminization of intra-European migration…One of the primary strengths of the volume is its effective approach to the collection and transmission of oral histories." — Oral History

" This is an important.[and] a very strong book. It successfully challenges older paradigms that separate German liberalism from imperialism or see the conjoining of the two as a late aberration."  ·  German History

	"The author’s] elegant account…represents a timely and important contribution to the existing literature...[that] represents the most sustained attempt to reframe the argument."  ·  The American Historical Review

	"...this is a stimulating work with a solid argument and place in the current historiography. In this, it draws attention to the importance of discourse on overseas expansion within many sectors of the German liberal-nationalist movement."  ·  Canadian Journal of History/Annales canadiennes d’histoire

	"Fitzpatrick's short but hard-hitting book seeks to reinstate imperialism as a fundamental constituent of German liberalism. As such it is a welcome and worthy addition to Berghahn's invaluable 'Monographs in German History' series."  ·  Central European History

“…this is an exemplary edited collection—it does what any edited collection should, in coming together to produce something collaborative than no scholar could achieve alone. Furthermore, it provides historians, sociologists, and other scholars a new way of thinking about generational change, continuity, and communication. Any framework such as this can be reductive and simplifying rather than instructive, but used well, as exemplified here, the nuanced nature of historical change and continuity over the individual life course and at a societal level is not lost.” · Journal of Family History

	“Pooley and Qureshi’s emphasis on using reproductive cultures as the lens with which to examine family relations and the social construction of parenthood proves to be an excellent method in answering what they believe is the ‘neglected question of how parenthood is passed on’”. · Student Anthropologist

	“This edited volume offers an introduction ─ an essential read in itself ─ that presents scholars with a valuable critical analytical review of the field of reproductive cultures as well as a clear mapping of the diverse range of case studies covered. This wide array of case studies, on its part, spans the globe and provides grounded, rich and captivating illustrations of the intergenerational transmission of contemporary parenthood.” · Population Ageing

	"The introduction alone is both a mini-encyclopedic coverage of this entire field and a much-needed and highly cogent call for a radical programmatic expansion in the scope of research addressing child-rearing" · Simon Szreter, Cambridge University

	"Focusing on the intergenerational transmission of parenthood allows the authors to provide a unique lens through which to examine the processes through which children are produced across time and space. Using a rich set of case studies that span the globe, the authors draw attention to the challenges that the production of children presents, highlighting key moments in the transmission and re-production of the practices, knowledge, ways of being, and social relations that ultimately produce a ‘proper’ person." · Cecilia Tomori, Johns Hopkins University

"Looking at the work of one of the most influential educators in the last century, someone who challenged conventional thinking on how teachers ought to teach and how learners ought to learn, this is a fascinatingly riveting and accessible read." —Early Years Educator Magazine
"It will appeal to students, educators, and researchers who are interested in a brief overview of approaches to critical education theory and practice. … Smidt’s book offers a challenge to teachers to consider the implications of Freire’s pedagogical theory for their development as teachers with a conscious concern for fostering social justice and equity in their classrooms, communities, and the world." —PsycCRITIQUES

Introducing Freire

“…a well-written, vibrant presentation of how world events  interacted with and impacted  de Gaulle's  grand design, creating  a comprehensive understanding of the general  in the Cold  War.  Highly recommended.”  ·  Choice

	“While there is a lot of information for readers to take in, the subject is inherently complex, spanning different aspects of French foreign policy and the politics of other countries and institutions. In spite of this complexity, Martin displays a good grasp of the material.”  ·  H-France Review

	“In the end, de Gaulle’s overall aim was to restore France’s status as a great power; but that ship had long sailed; probably as long ago as the 1920s. It was a valiant effort that Martin has documented well in a very readable book—but ultimately one that was doomed to failure.”  ·  Journal of Contemporary European Studies

	“[The book] is extremely well researched, well written, and Martin accomplishes his stated objective: namely, to provide a more balanced account of de Gaulle that goes beyond views of him as either a visionary, or an irresponsible and anti-American nationalist…Martin’s analysis makes a unique contribution in that it examines the linkages between the General's economic, political and security policy in order to understand how the three came together to shape his overall policy toward the US.”  ·  Erin Mahan, Chief Historian, Office of the Secretary of Defense 

	“This is a very detailed, carefully argued and extensively researched study of de Gaulle’s ambition to restore France’s position as a global power during the last half of his presidency under the Fifth Republic by challenging the US claim to leadership of the Western, trans-Atlantic alliance during the Cold War.”  ·  John Kim Munholland, University of Minnesota

	“Drawing on very impressive research in document collections and memoirs from France, Great Britain, and the United States, Martin narrates the development, implementation, and rapid decline of de Gaulle’s efforts to assert a new French role in the Cold War… In contrast to the English and French-language scholarship that treats de Gaulle as a strategic hero or an impetuous villain, this book re-examines this seminal figure as a Cold War politician. This is a compelling and very valuable portrait.”  ·  Jeremi Suri, University of Texas at Austin

"[...]Liegl’s work has the combined merit of expanding scholarly debates on the role of ‘emotions’ in IR and providing a sophisticated explanation for the role of status and standing in Chinese foreign policy. The timely topic and the author’s rigorous analyses further contribute to make the book particularly appealing to any scholar interested in exploring and understanding the various geopolitical implications of China’s rise in the current world."--Mauro Barelli, Journal of Conflict and Security Law

“This is a brave book, likely to shake our traditional understandings about adoption and treating abused and neglected children out of home. The book gives voice to birth parents and to children in very interesting and painful ways.” · Vered Slonim-Nevo, Ben Gurion University of the Negev

	“This is an important book, which examines the practice of adoption from the perspective of an expert who has been exposed to the defective operation of a bureaucratic system. It re-examines critically and rigorously the role of social workers in adoption cases and it does so in a forceful and compelling way.” · Alon Harel, Hebrew University of Jerusalem
