'Russian Culture in theAge of Globalization is one of the first collections to take globalization as it relates to Russia beyond Western-centric binaries, and do so with a primary eye toward symbolic economies. An impressively diverse group of scholars takes on topics ranging from language and sport to poetry and new media technologies, resulting in a volume that is as penetrating in its interrogation of "culture" as it is in its illumination of national identity.' - Professor Michael Gorham, University of Florida
'Russian　Culture　in　the　Age　of　Globalization presents essays assembled in an innovative manner to revise the variety of forms of border—political, ethnic, linguistic and disciplinary—that are still customary in academic reflections of national cultures. The present era has transformed culture into a screen onto which are projected conceptions of self, desire for recognition of the Other, geopolitical ambitions, and unresolved complexes. Russian culture in the age of globalization is a country "wide shut." Its fields are the site of collision between isolationism and transgression, friend and enemy, conservative values and obsession with modernity. This collection of essays records the trajectories and traces of such collisions with the precision of a police report and the fascination of a detective story.' - Professor Ilya Kalinin, St Petersburg State University
'This excellent collection of essays examines Russia's participation in global cultural exchange. The authors engage with both the more traditional areas of cultural production such as literature, cinemaand the arts alongside new forms such web-born satire. Throughout, the authors privilege the visual making this a vital contribution to the field of Russian Studies and Visual Studies.' - Professor Mike O’Mahony, University of Bristol

'These days it seems barely a week goes by without some big IT Project in the news, normally for all the wrong reasons - the thing that links them is the dreaded F-word, no not Gordon Ramsay but Failure. It's a sobering fact that over 60% percent of IT based projects are judged to be failures. In other words, what they delivered fell short of what they set out to deliver...Part of the Answer, according to Dr Oakes, lies in conducting Project Reviews, you know, that part of the project that gets squeezed in at the very end of the project lifecycle (this is assuming it happens at all). In his book Project Reviews, Assurance and Governance, Dr Oakes makes a compelling case for taking Project Reviews more seriously. He argues that far from being something to be slotted in if you have time, Project Reviews are a critical part of the project and fundamental to ensuring you learn from your mistakes and keeping your projects on track.'    Andrew Hatton, IS Project Manager, Oxfam GB  ’The book provides good guidance on the role of PMO in reviews, assurance and governance, recognising the various dimensions of a PMO and the different positions it can sit within the organisation. It takes time to look at the potential areas of conflict and the need for a level of independence which sometimes cannot be provided by the PMO. What I found particularly interesting was the governance matrix (which I hadn't seen before). I think this is an excellent tool to identify and articulate the role of the PMO. I found the book very easy to read, got some practical hints and tips about reviews and it made me think in more detail on PMO's role in governance.’ APM PMO SIG Newsletter, February 2014

’The latest global financial crisis has put the focus on the emerging professional group of financial planners. This book has undertaken a study which attempts to understand how those financial planners who hold the internationally recognised CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERâ„¢ designation think about being professional. It does this by interestingly applying the qualitative methodology of phenomenography which in this book gives voice to CFP professionals from America, Hong Kong and Australia. The book identifies the qualitatively limited number of ways professionalism is experienced by this group of professionals in each of those countries and then discusses the similarities and differences in conceptions of professionalism. Cultural factors largely explain the differences in how professionalism is experienced across borders and so this book provides some useful insights to the financial planning standards and certifying bodies, regulators and financial planning practitioners.’ Hayat Khan, La Trobe University, Australia  ’This book makes an original contribution in the field of financial planning literature as well as in the epistemology of professionalism. Professional financial planners, standard setters and corporate regulators, financial planners’ associations and present and potential clients of financial planners will find this book interesting reading.’ Sheikh F. Rahman, Central Queensland University, Australia

a study of the evolution of the Greek Anthology from its beginnings to the rediscovery of the Palatine Anthology in 1606. The theme is a vast and complicated one ... This lengthy book, written with verve and occasional flashes of humour, is a masterly treatment of the theme and is certain to be the standard work for a long time to come. By his exhaustive use of the evidence C. has illuminated the growth of the Greek Anthology as never before and by his probing
questions and stimulating hypotheses has set the agenda for much future research in the field.

'Environmental conservation is pervasive and contentious. Nature Unbound does more than summarize its history and characteristics; it also, crucially, transcends the contention by analysing conservation in terms that will re-shape the debate. The authors ask about the gains and losses of conservation, and how they are distributed. In answering these questions, they offer a persuasive description of the institutions and practices of conservation in an unequal, capitalist world.' James G. Carrier, Oxford Brookes University and Indiana University 'This is an exciting book that summarises the debates about conservation with clarity and depth, but takes them several stages further to confront the reader to recognise the many ways in which conservation practices shape and are shaped by contemporary capitalism. It deserves to be read in New Zealand, where conservation, like anywhere else, is anything but unproblematic. It is, however, frequently constructed as such: to the extent that we seem often to lack the analytical tools to engage in proper debate. In contrast, this book provides plenty.' New Zealand Geographer
'Due to its wide range of topics, Nature Unbound is an excellent introduction to critical perspectives on conservation. Furthermore, the organization of every chapter makes it possible to read each of them separately without losing sight of the central argument.' – Alejandro Camargo, PhD candidate in Geography, Syracuse University
