"It is a rare book that combines very acute logical and analytic power with intimate insider knowledge on crucial historical moments of democratic transition in Bhutan. This will be uniquely valuable book for those who are interested in Bhutan as well as those interested more generally in monarchy, democracy and politics. It should be read by people who are not even familiar with Bhutan or South Asia, but are willing to think deeply about the state of democracy, as well as those who are interested in politics and governance both at the state and local levels."— Tatsuro Fujikura, Professor of Anthropology, Graduate School of Asian and African Area Studies, Kyoto University, Japan
"It is an excellent book! Interesting, informative and well-written! The combination of political theory and ethnographic methodology worked well. And of course the whole thing is enriched and enlivened by personal role in the events discussed. I am sure it will have a great impact in Bhutan and far beyond."—Sherry Ortner, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Los Angeles, USA

’Here at last is a book of substance, rather than just rhetoric, about structural adjustment...written by people who know Ghana from first hand experience, not from cloistered halls.  A must read for anyone interested in globalization and for all students of contemporary Africa.’ Professor James L. Newman, Syracuse University, USA 'This book provides interesting reading...The novelty lies in the fact that the evaluation is multi-disciplinary and would therefore interest a wide range of development researchers.' Journal of International Development

'Throughout his book Newey explores his themes with grace and clarity, and with some sustained digressions which can detain us rewardingly... Newey's reading of Dickens is intelligent and responsible, warm, communicative and with a rich scholarly immersion in nineteenth century sources which give the contexts for his arguments... the attentive reader should be prepared for the fact that in its last chapter Vincent Newey's study springs a surprise.  The ideology of Our Mutual Friend, in this  view, is far more complex that a first reading allows us to see.  I will not spoil the surprise by summarising it in a review, it needs to be read in full the make its impact.  It strengthens the claims that this strong and important new study of Dickens will have on the attention of all serious readers of this extraordinary and central novelist.'  English  'Including a comprehensive bibliography, this meticulously documented study will be a valuable guide to readers of Dickens wanting to grasp his complicated moral system. Highly recommended.'

'The size of the public debt is often discussed, but the mechanics of how it is issued and managed have been quite obscure despite the importance for financial markets and interest rate policy. Allen draws on archive records to tell a compelling and detailed story of how the Bank of England manipulated the market over almost fifty years. On the way he offers an important insight into the Bank of England's relationship with the market and with the Treasury in the decades before monetarism. Must reading for those seeking to understand the British economy and financial markets from the 1920s to the 1970s.' Catherine Schenk, University of Oxford

'Skilfully edited and refreshingly free from anecdotal trivia...' Bridget Cherry, Building Design 
'...this book genuinely does what it claims; it reassesses his legacy, and it does so fairly, sensibly, and with a good sense of its subject's limitations... What is so striking - and admirable - about this collection is the extent to which Pevsner's defenders have acknowledged and engaged with the arguments of his critics.' The British Art Journal 
'This satisfying volume weaves together many strands, offering its fair share of paradox, and yet convincingly celebrates Pevsner's stated belief in 'the blessings of modesty, faith in service, and a certain neutrality'.' Gillian Darley, The Architectural Review 
'... a fascinating and detailed exploration of both the man and his work... a fitting academic tribute to the achievements of a man who has had a lasting impact on the way that we appreciate our architectural legacy.' Malcolm Airs, Journal of Architectural Conservation

'An important and comprehensive treatment of George W. Bush's foreign policy decision-making.  Moens takes us well beyond journalistic accounts and those of the administration's critics by linking Bush's decisions to his personality, background, leadership style, and advisory network.  The book is a "must read" for anyone seeking an in-depth understanding of this presidency...Moens forces the reader to grapple with any assumption that Bush's foreign policy decision-making can be easily dismissed as that of a "trigger happy" cowboy.' Professor John P. Burke, University of Vermont, USA   'Moens' clear, elegant writing style succeeds in providing a comprehensive, non-hysterical biography of President Bush that effectively illustrates how he views the world.' Dr John C. Hulsman, Senior Foreign Policy Analyst, The Heritage Foundation, USA  'Alexander Moens's book is an even-handed, dispassionate look at the real George [W.] Bush...Whatever the outcome, Alexander Moens has done a great service by exploring the personality, motives and record of the man who made the leap - and doing it without the usual Bush-bashing rhetoric.' Literary Review of Canada  '...a welcome addition to the literature on the 43rd president...The depth of his research on President Bush is impressive...Moens' book will find a ready audience with those who are interested in foreign policy analysis and decision-making...Its focus on one of the most controversial and important presidents in recent history only makes it that much more valuable.'

“The present book gives a detailed treatment of the standard monomial theory (SMT) for the Grassmannians and their Schubert subvarieties along with several applications of SMT. It can be used as a reference book by experts and graduate students who study varieties with a reductive group action such as flag and toric varieties.” (Valentina Kiritchenko, zbMATH 1343.14001, 2016)“The book under review is more elementary; it is exclusively devoted to Grassmannians and their Schubert subvarieties. The book is divided into three parts. … This is a nicely written book, one that may appeal to students and researchers in related areas.” (Felipe Zaldivar, MAA Reviews, maa.org, December, 2015)
