The Myth of Rescue

"Wulff does convincing and interesting work in making the argument that all Irish dance is influenced by links to the land and/or notions of Irishness, tradition, authenticity, and collective identity...[that] becomes increasingly complicated given issues of immigration, colonization, diasporic communities, multiculturalism, and cosmopolitanism."�����H-Net Reviews

	"There is an admirable reconception of performance, which moves away from the usual tightly bodily based formulas towards an appreciation of storytelling and characterization... These re-thinkings have significant implications for seeing tradition as a resource and/or as a mode of engagement."�����JRAI

"The topic of leadership development is both timely and important, and the theoretical directions the authors provide are a new contribution to the field. I really appreciated the new areas the authors brought together from different fields: literature on adult development with literature on morality and ethics with literature on epistemic cognition- a fascinating and informative integration" - Mary Uhl-Bien, University of Nebraska, Lincoln
"Mindful of the fragmented approaches to developing leaders and leadership, these authors have thoughtfully integrated fields of inquiry (cognitive, social, organizational, developmental and organizational psychology, identity theory, competency/behavior) in one comprehensive well-documented book." -Laura Santana, Center for Creative Leadership in Latin America, Europe, US, and Middle East
"Many books on leadership have one or two chapters that reflect state-of-the-art-thinking applied to a practical aspect of leadership. However, in this book, every chapter reflects the very highest levels of scholarship." -Robert G. Lord, University of Akron

'This study, led by world renowned scholars and scientists, sets new standards for efforts to understand rural life, poverty dynamics, human-environment interactions, and development outcomes. A key output from the ambitious 'Poverty Environment Network (PEN)', this brilliant collection of analyses will have lasting impact on how scholars and students of poverty and environment conduct research and collect data, manage interdisciplinary collaborative work, and present policy-shaping results.' Arun Agrawal, University of Michigan, USA 
'This volume provides an invaluable guide to the relationship between poverty, environment and how people benefit from natural resources. It presents practical advice on how to undertake rigorous field-based investigations and meticulously covers each stage in the research process.' Professor Katrina Brown, University of East Anglia, UK 
'Household income surveys traditionally underestimate how much rural families depend on nature to earn their living. This book shows how researchers can do it right and why everyone should care.' David Kaimowitz, Director, Natural Resources and Sustainable Development, Ford Foundation 
'This book provides a solid methodological foundation for designing and implementing household and village surveys to quantify rural livelihoods, with an emphasis on environmental income and reliance in developing countries.' Bruce Campbell, Director, Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) of the CGIAR

The book would be valued by academics, bureaucrats and students. The coverage is broad and relevant to the topic it purports to encompass. It is far reaching and much of the theory it addresses is cutting edge. There are a number of emergent disciplines and ideas in this field, and the manner in which this book is structured and composed should enable penetration of al relevant and cognate disciplines. I believe the book is "State- of- the art". 
--&nbsp;Professor Sarah Lumley; University of Western Australia. 
I had a pleasure to host Prof. Seip twice at the Institute of Environmental Sciences, Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. Together with his colleague, Dr Reidar Kvadsheim, he provided us excellent courses in applied environmental decision making.&nbsp;The courses were well suited mostly for M.Sc. and Ph.D. students specializing in ecology and environmental sciences. Unfortunately, until now there was no single good source, such as a handbook, that might be used for developing similar courses independently. Thus, I was indeed happy to hear that a primer based on well-established courses in applied environmental decision making is going to be published by Springer. 
The one thing I noted after looking through the manuscript of the primer is that it is going to serve a really broad audience: starting from ecologists – with good background in biology and environmental sciences but usually purely prepared to undertake decisions considering also economic and social criteria – to decision-makers, whose education is just opposite – with relatively good insight into economic and social matters, they usually have no or pure education in biology and ecology. Applied environmental decision making is a difficult task, requiring balancing costs and benefits, and both these aspects should be well based on current knowledge. However, while knowledge suffice as the scientific criterion, environmental decision making has to consider also social costs and preferences. The combination of these both aspects is exactly what our students were taught during the courses provided at the&nbsp;Jagiellonian University, and what is the topic of the primer. 
What is very important in the case of this particular handbook is how the authors are able to introduce the two quite different groups of people – the decision-makers and the ecologists – to the areas they are not familiar with. In my opinion, the manuscript I had a pleasure to review for the authors, handles this difficult task exceptionally well. It is written with simple, easy to follow language, it is not overloaded with difficult equations (which would most probably discourage many students), and when these are crucial, some examples are given so that a student can easily follow all the calculations. The book is also rich in graphs and other figures that make the text even easier to understand. 
In conclusion, I will be indeed happy to see the book in bookstores and libraries, and I believe that it will enable dozens of lecturers to introduce the interesting field of environmental decision making into university curricula either as separate courses or, at least, as parts of other, more general ones. I am also pretty sure that a number of people working currently in the field of conservation biology, environmental protection, ecotoxicology, etc. will be happy to use this book in their daily professional work.
