A Choice Outstanding Academic Title for 2012  'Moore’s methodology is clear and easy to follow... [His] discussion of how listeners react to recordings is just as strong as his discussion of melodic modes. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals.'   Choice  'Song Means is an astonishing achievement, and an exceptionally important book. Drawing on more than 20 years of his own writing on popular music, but synthesising and developing it in a quite remarkable way, Allan Moore accomplishes what seems almost impossible: a completely engaging, beautifully clear, authoritative, and undogmatic account of musical meaning across a huge range of pop songs. Written in direct, accessible and uncomplicated language, but tackling fundamental questions of musical meaning and the nature of musical materials, the book is rooted in Moore's own encyclopaedic knowledge of popular music set in a sophisticated conceptual framework. This is a landmark in the musicology of pop, and a book that will have a profound impact on how people think about, and understand, the most globally pervasive form of music of our times: the pop song.' Eric F. Clarke FBA, Heather Professor of Music, St Aldate's, University of Oxford, UK  'Song Means is firmly recommended for academic music libraries and any collections with an orientation toward popular music, theory, or analysis.'  ARSC (Association for Recorded Sound Collections)  '... for anyone interested in the academic analysis of a field of music that has profoundly influenced - some might say defined - whole generations, this book sets a benchmark that [...] will last for a long time.'  Journal on the Art of Record Production  '...Song Means is a worthy and important addition to the popular music scholarship canon.' Music Theory On-Line

'Rhiannon Mathias [...] bring[s] expertise and enthusiasm to her task as she traces the progress of these three composers, embracing previously unavailable material as well as interviews with the composers themselves and their contemporaries... We have probably all heard something from each creator; but if a publication inspires us to go beyond the printed material, then a major test is passed. This book, about three women who stuck to their guns and made music their lives, succeeds in so doing.' Gramophone  ’The book offers a full-some introduction to these composers, with a wealth of musical and background information. Overall, it deserves to be widely read; not least for its placing of Williams within a British as well as a Welsh context, for its focus on Lutyens’s music rather than her famously acid persona and for its challenging of the music-historical backwater in which all three, but Maconchy in particular, have languished unjustifiably for too long.’ Cyfansoddwyr Cymru / Composers of Wales Quarterly  'Wherever the book opens, one finds important aspects of one of the composers, often offering deep insights into the creations. The result is a most impressive array of information, both on Twentieth Century music in Britain and on the three composers themselves.' British Music Society News  'What Mathias has done so well is to provide a clear picture of a wide variety of all three women’s haunting and commanding music and to link it to the main events and concerns of their careers... This is without doubt a book which should prompt new generations of performers to discover this glorious music and bring it to the ears of new listeners. It may even be a book which inspires a new generation of women to believe in themselves and the possibilities of their own music.' Sophie Fuller in Brio

'Bailey’s book expands upon our understanding of rococo art and architecture in two significant ways. It proposes that there was a spiritual component to the rococo from its inception, detectable even in its secular applications. It also reveals how spirituality enabled rococo design to become a global phenomenon, ranging beyond France to Germany, Brazil, and Argentina. This is a stimulating, provocative study that reveals how much the rococo mattered to eighteenth-century societies.' Michael Yonan, University of Missouri, Columbia, USA 
'[This book is] wide-ranging and formidably well-researched ... Bailey maps this process with breadth, depth and precision, and with plentiful, and telling illustrations. This is a brilliant, potentially game-changing book.' Art and Christianity

"Given the fast-moving and often controversial developments that have taken place in Science and Technology Studies (STS) over the past thirty years, it is easy to forget that the field originally aspired to be a version of naturalised epistemology. Finn Collin argues that this is still the best way to understand the field's leading figures and their often confusing twists and turns in position. Collin approaches the subject as a very informed, sympathetic yet ultimately critical reader of STS from the standpoint of analytic philosophy. The result is the most sophisticated and comprehensive presentation of STS as a philosophical work in progress that has yet to be written. It will likely be the key point of reference for any further writing on this topic for years to come." Steven Fuller, Professor of Sociology, University of Warwick, United Kingdom"Drawing from experience, writing about the philosophical dimensions of STS theorists can be difficult. Selecting which figures are interesting enough to stand in as proxies for a diverse field while clarifying the philosophical dimensions of their collective thinking within the parameters of an intellectually rich, unified theme—here, naturalism—is downright challenging. Accomplishing both goals without lapsing into esoteric jargon that will delight a small cohort of readers but ultimately alienate a more generalized readership is practically impossible. I’m delighted to report that Prof. Collin succeeds in accomplishing all of these goals, and does so admirably—better than anyone else I’ve encountered in the secondary literature." Evan Selinger, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Rochester Institute of Technology, U.S.A.
