“Monolingualism and Linguistic Exhibitionism in Fiction is a timely, wide-ranging and thought-provoking work that simultaneously reasserts the power of literature and questions its influence on linguistic diversity and (in)tolerance. Because it reminds its readers of the importance of language difference and multilingualism, it will be of interest to a wide range of students and scholars but … it will mostly appeal to those of applied linguistics, multilingualism, stylistics, postcolonial studies and cultural studies.” (Noémie Nélis, English Text Construction, Vol. 10 (1), 2017)“Pandey’s book is a timely good read for our post-global literary scene. It is a cogent account of linguistic imbalance in literature, literary capital, and canon formation. Interestingly, the book provides an insight into how scholars with a background in linguistics deal with literary materials. … this book can be read as an ardent call for real multilingualism in fiction to help achieve more international communication and a better, symmetrical global interchange.” (Dr. Shadi Neimneh, Arab World English Journal, October, 2016)

"Frank Möller's Visual Peace is a searching and original study. While much recent writing about photography and visual culture has focused on violence and conflict, and much of that work has relied on unexamined assumptions about spectatorship, Moller departs in two important and very fruitful ways. He subjects those assumptions to rigorous scrutiny, developing a compelling account of the viewer as 'participant witness,' and he shifts the axis of inquiry from the problem of violence to the prospects for peace. The result is an important and richly rewarding book."
- Mark Reinhardt, Williams College, USA

"Fluently moving across a wide-range of media, Visual Peace offers a lucid reappraisal of the current state of photojournalism. In a refreshingly inquisitive and jargon-free prose, Möller explores what it means to encounter images, and how we may gain and exert agency through them. Making a compelling case for the emerging field of Visual Peace Studies, among the book's many merits is that it engages us both as readers and as viewers, eliciting a space to experience and reflect upon the visual source material on our own. For at stake are not merely what we demand from images, but ultimately what we demand from ourselves."
- Henrik Gustafsson, University of Tromsø, Norway

"Like all works in the excellent 'Princeton Primers in Climate' series, this book presents content in the main body in a nontechnical manner, with little mathematical detail, but then includes detailed technical/mathematical information in sidebars and boxes so that various levels of more advanced discussion can be individually tailored to a particular group of students."

“Neighbourhood frames offer an interpretation to systems of modal logic that generalises the more traditional relational frames. … Complemented with the numerous pointers to the literature that it provides, the book will be a valuable source of information and practice for PhD students.” (Éric Martin, zbMATH 1390.03001, 2018)“Reading and writing a review of this wonderful book has been a pleasure. Knowing the basics of propositional modal logic may explain why I enjoyed reading it. The author has gathered and surveyed many papers in writing this book. This is a must-read for those who want to do research on neighborhood semantics--after having acquired a basic knowledge of modal logic.” (Manoj K. Raut, Computing Reviews, February, 2019)

"Although autobiography has been criticized as narrowly ethnocentric and paternalist and as promoting the view of the (masculine and Western) subject as universal, Huddart (English, Chinese U. of Hong Kong) suggests in contrast that autobiography can serve as a form of resistance to universalist concepts and theories. Engaging both post- structuralism and postcolonial theory in order to construct this argument, he conducts readings of such critical figures as Edward Said and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak in the context of the writings of Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, and Alain Badiou." -- Book News Inc., August 2008

From the book reviews:“The biochemical, physiological, and metabolic roles of GAPDH is discussed starting with the cell membrane and ionic mechanisms of glycolysis, energetics, and the TCA cycle. This is a book which should explore in greater detail the effects on blood brain barrier and CNS metabolism. I do however, highly recommend this book to physiologists and biochemists. Graduate students and postdocs will probably find this a very good discussion of GAPDH.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, August, 2014)
