"The Handbook covers an extensive list of themes that view the significance of human rights for social justice, policing, punishment, justice systems, law and governance and the development of criminology itself. This ambitious Handbook is the first major attempt to bring human rights out of the fringe and to the fore of criminological debate. It is breathtaking in its scope. The 53 chapters are authored by an inter-disciplinary group of distinguished, cutting-edge and early career scholars – an impressive feat in itself. This is a superb example of trans-nationalising the discipline by bringing together scholars from the global north and south. The Handbook is an essential source of original and diverse scholarship that brings criminology and human rights perspectives together. It will appeal to a broad range of scholars across a number of disciplines well beyond criminology. It is also vital reading for policy makers, legislators and human rights activists and organisations across the world. I thoroughly commend it."Kerry Carrington, Head of School of Justice, Faculty of Law, Queensland University of Technology, Australia&nbsp;"For years many of us have bemoaned the lack of synergy between human rights and criminological scholarship. Happily, criminologists and human rights scholars are increasingly talking to each other and this diverse and rich collection marks an important milestone in that development. The editors and contributors are to be warmly congratulated."Kieran McEvoy, Professor of Law and Transitional Justice, Queens University Belfast, Northern Ireland

'The Materiality of Color is a remarkable collection of essays on the meaning of color as found in social and cultural contexts. While the aesthetics of color is duly taken into account, the focus is on color production - technology transfer, monopolies, labor regimes, and economies of exchange. The authors make clear that the substances of color production, such as arsenic, mercury, urine, and dung, are as important as the dazzling colors they produced. Blending the histories of technologies and commodities as well as cultural and literary history, the volume makes a distinctive contribution to understanding of the global context in which the modern world of color was born.' Robert Finlay, Department of History, University of Arkansas, USA 
'The principal contribution of The Materiality of Color is to deepen our appreciation of colorants as commodities and the products of human labor. Through its focus on production, readers see the hardship and complexity of manufacturing dyes and getting them to market.' CAA Reviews 
'Given their wide approach, every angle the authors consider gives the topic a fresh perspective. ... a welcome addition to a complex subject, which will be suitable to the fields of history, art history, and Latin American and colonial studies.' Renaissance Quarterly

"What is curriculum? Who decides what it is? What might it become? Informative, stimulating, scholarly, and of relevance far beyond English teaching and the Australian context, this book by one of our leading theorists is a must for any educator accepting its invitation to engage with curriculum constructively, critically and imaginatively. Engaging Curriculum not only encourages us to turn our critical gaze on key curriculum issues of our time, but presents curriculum itself as a fascinating object for interpretation."
-- Alex Moore, IOE University of London, UK

"As one of Australia’s most distinguished contributors to the transnational literatures of both curriculum inquiry and English education, Bill Green raises questions concerning each of these fields, and the complex assemblage produced by their juxtaposition, that many readers might not have thought to ask. If there is, indeed, a ‘divide’ between curriculum theory and English education, Green’s engaging essays and constructively critical historicising in this book not only ‘bridges’ it, but also goes a long way towards healing it."
--Noel Gough, Professor Emeritus of Education, La Trobe University, Australia

Engaging Curriculum

'... an innovative collection of essays that ... can be recommended to anyone with an interest in urban history, memory, or military history.' Cercles  '... an interesting and diverse collection of essays.' Reviews in History  'Individually, the essays make this volume a valuable addition to the literature. They also document the growing vitality of scholarship on war and the city in the twentieth century.' German Studies Review  '... interesting collection on urban dimensions of total war... this is an impressive volume. The editors’ introduction, 'Towards a Metropolitan History of Total War', is full of interest and a lengthy and richly suggestive chapter, unlike so many editorial introductions.' European History Quarterly  '... impressive global reach, spanning half the globe and three continents. Rarely does a collection of essays achieve to bring together, in one volume, articles on the impact of war on such diverse places as Tokyo, Adrianople, Leningrad, Warsaw, Vienna and Coventry, to name but a few. Reading them side by side accords an impression not only of how global 'The Age of Catastrophe' (Eric Hobsbawm) really was.' Urban History

"Cartographies of Exile is a timely, fascinating, and important new collection that charts the complex interplay between map-making and exile. Ranging across literary and cultural studies, the digital humanities, and the visual arts, Cartographies of Exile offers a strikingly interdisciplinary approach and a breadth of scholarship that will ensure its place as a key point of reference in the emergent geo- or spatial humanities." – Peta Mitchell, The University of Queensland, Australia

"This exciting and innovative book opens up a broad interdisciplinary dialogue on the spatial practices of the exilic condition. The various approaches demonstrate how the historic and political burdens on much of cartography still leave room for individual acts of agency. The volume’s meaningful contribution lies in this interface between national-regional-local map-making and individual aesthetic and political gestures of marking terrain. The authors’ lucid examples from literature, art, ecology, and new media challenge cartography to expand and account for the placelessness of exile." – Marcy E. Schwartz, Rutgers University, USA

Cartographies of Exile

'This is one of those rare books that combines academic rigour and scholarship with the kind of lucidity that makes engaging bed-time reading. Halstead's broad sweep on the fascinating life of this one woman encompasses all the major themes of trial and challenge that have dogged women musicians, and especially composers, for centuries.'  Professor Lucy Green, Institute of Education, University of London, UK  'Halstead's book left me impatient to hear more of Gipps's music... It is a book that will become a key text in British Music Studies, both for Halstead's level headed assessment of Gipps's life and work and for her lucid discussion of so much that is interesting and important in trying to understand the wider issues facing the study of British music and musical life in the 20th century.' North American British Music Studies Association  ’Halstead's discussion of the music is lively, accessible and leaves the reader wishing that more of Gipps' music were available on recordings... What Halstead does is present the facts in a clear, engaging manner that make Ruth Gipps come to life on the pages.’ The Delian  ’Interesting and valuable as the gender and personality issues are in portraying a human being and in putting her life in the context of its time, the real need is to get to grips with her music. Jill Halstead's book is a fantastic start.’ Tempo

"One finds here not only the final results illustrated frequently in colour images, but also the main steps of calculations in R with a possibility to access freely the software located somewhere in the cloud. The book represents an interesting and useful initiative and a tremendous work for putting all this together. It is also a testimony how much data analysis methods have widened and deepened in recent years." ~International Society for Clinical Biostatistics
"Statisticians, software specialists, and people in application fields address methodology and software development for big data and high-dimensional data in contexts where local patterns in a large data matrix are of primary interest. They describe biclustering methods for finding such patterns, and use the open-source statistics software R. The topics include from cluster analysis to biclustering, ensemble methods and robust solutions, biclustering methods in chemoinformatics and molecular modeling, overcoming data dimensionality problems in market segmentation, and biclustering for cloud computing." ~ProtoView
"A key feature of this book is the focus on R tools, with an emphasis on building a fully-functional and user-friendly data analysis solution.All presentedmethods are integrated into an R package BiClustGUI, which provides user-friendly interface and allows for the addition of custom extensions to the implemented methods. The book’s website . . . provides a wealth of additional resources on biclustering, as well as links to all code implementation and data from the book. The chapter on cloud computing will be particularly useful to some readers, as it describes a portable implementation of a biclustering solution that integrates various previously introduced methods. In addition to replicating the results reported in the book, this section provides a blueprint for reproducible research." ~The American Statistician

"This book is an ambitious collection of&nbsp; 31 chapters relating to modern work and family issues...the collection was detailed...very strong and enlightening chapters."&#8212;PsycCRITIQUES"This is a most informative book....It is a book&nbsp;that needs to be read by far more people than will read it. All counselors, especially those working with middle-class and lower clients, would benefit from knowing the material contained within the book. It would serve well as a supplemental text for a family study course....consider it a must read for those teaching an introductory course on the family....a book on work and family that is of such a high quality."&#8212;The Family Journal"The sheer heft of the resulting volume...inspires hope of at least some information and analysis.

'This book provides a much-needed critique of how we do management history and why. It offers a wide variety of perspectives on the subject, critiques existing methodologies and stimulates much-needed debate about historical purpose and practice. Scholars will argue over some of the views presented here for years to come; and that is a very good thing.' - Morgen Witzel, Fellow, Centre for Leadership Studies, University of Exeter and author of A History of Management Thought
'The editors and authors fulfilled a difficult task: tracing an arc on this topic to represent the ongoing process of thinking "history" in management and organization studies, as well as the intimate connection of history with thinking in our field altogether. An extraordinary collection and ‘must read’ for anyone in Management and Organizational Studies.' - Marta B. Calás, Professor, University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA
'This much needed volume provides a critical foundation for the new historical turn in management research and scholarship. The authors have assembled a series of writers who provide both a substantive review of organizational theory through a historical lens but also provide a programmatic roadmap for the field.' - Rakesh Khurana, Professor, Harvard Business School, USA
