»Dennoch liest man den Band mit Gewinn, legt er doch offen, wo die Forschung steht: Das Bemühen um eine Differenzierung von Kriminalität, Krieg oder Gewalt beschäftigt die Forschung ebenso, wie die verschiedenen hier diskutierten Methoden. Allen Mitforschenden und Interessierten seien die 'Narrative der Gewalt' sehr zur Lektüre empfohlen.« Christoph Mauntel, Sehepunkte, 15.12.2019

Praise for Mary Oliver"She is, far and away, this country's best selling poet." &mdash;Dwight Garner, New York Times Book Review"You can pick up pretty much any Mary Oliver collection and be thrilled, but Swan...is so piercing and penetrating that form seems to fall away, an unnecessary stage for the rocket." &mdash;Brian Doyle, Christian Century"Oliver reminds us of the mystery and necessity of poetry, whose source is, ultimately, the Creator." &mdash;Angela O'Donnell, America&ldquo;One of the astonishing aspects of Oliver&rsquo;s work is the consistency of tone over this long period [of her career]. What changes is an increased focus on nature and an increased precision with language that has made her one of our very best poets. . . . Although few poets have fewer human beings in their poems than Mary Oliver, it is ironic that few poets also go so far to help us forward.&rdquo;&mdash;Stephen Dobyns,&#160;New York Times Book Review&#160;&#160;&ldquo;Mary Oliver&rsquo;s poetry is fine and deep; it reads like a blessing. Her special gift is to connect us with our sources in the natural world, its beauties and terrors and mysteries and consolations.&rdquo;&mdash;Stanley Kunitz&#160;&#160;&#160;&ldquo;Mary Oliver&rsquo;s poems are natural growths out of a loam of perception and feeling, and instinctive skill with language makes them seem effortless. Reading them is a sensual delight.&rdquo;&mdash;May Swenson&#160;&ldquo;Like Henry David Thoreau of Transcendentalist fame she is a naturalist whose attention to what used to be called the Book of Nature borders on both devotion and experimentation. . . . Mindfulness seems to be Oliver&rsquo;s m&eacute;tier, looking and listening her scientific method and contemplative practice.&rdquo;&mdash;Stephen Prothero,&#160;Search&#160;&#160;&ldquo;I should be clear that Mary Oliver is, to my mind, one of the most gifted American poets working in English today. In her hands, the language acquires a lucidity approaching translucence; the accuracy of her vision and the precision of her voice are unique in their refreshing simplicity. Perhaps most singular is the tendency of her poems to be at once powerful and appealing; an affection for the natural world and a sympathy toward the reader abide.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Katherine Hollander,&#160;Pleiades&#160;&ldquo;This year the Top 5 [Indiebound poetry best sellers] can be summed up in six words: Mary Oliver, Mary Oliver, Mary Oliver. Oliver&rsquo;s impressive feat reflects both an enduring popularity and an unparalleled ability to touch readers on a deep, almost primal level.&rdquo;&mdash;Elizabeth Lund,&#160;Christian Science Monitor&ldquo;Mary Oliver moves by instinct, faith, and determination. She is among our finest poets, and still growing.&rdquo;&mdash;Alicia Ostriker,&#160;The Nation&#160;&ldquo;One would have to reach back perhaps to [John] Clare or [Christopher] Smart to safely cite a parallel to Oliver&rsquo;s lyricism.&rdquo;&mdash;David Barber,&#160;Poetry&#160;&#160;&ldquo;The music in Oliver&rsquo;s writing is unmistakable. Her poetry can be read as the best of the real lyrics we have these days, and it&rsquo;s no surprise that she&rsquo;s already won a Pulitzer Prize for it, as well as many other honors.&rdquo;&mdash;Los Angeles Times

’This is a remarkably provocative backstage view of what it's like to enact incident command on the front lines of crisis.  The book has just the right mix of experience, reflection, and explanation to show that incident command actually epitomizes organizing and managing across all sectors of human activity.  This is a marvellous example of how practice and theory ought to be joined, but seldom are.’ Professor Karl E. Weick, University of Michigan, USA  'A very interesting book on a VERY interesting topic'  M2 Best Books  ’Incident Command: Tales From the Hot Seat is required reading for all those faced with decision-making challenges as they further their Fire Service careers.  The authors of this finely researched work have moved beyond the confines of the Fire Service to demonstrate that the knowledge and expertise of the incident commander are the most critical factors in crisis management.  The case studies looking at the experience of an airline pilot and a prison governor are specially apposite.  As the authors admit freely, the art of incident command cannot be learned from a manual...but this book is certainly a compelling and relevant addition to the armoury of all those who find themselves in the proverbial hot seat.’ Brian Robinson, Commissioner for Fire and Emergency Planning, London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority  ’This book is required reading for those who aspire to high level incident command.  It dispels effectively the magnificent myths of leadership, but more importantly the authors have gained unprecedented access to individuals who have found themselves in the tightest leadership spots.  Their candid accounts of triumph and disaster are salutary and utterly compelling.’ Tom Wood, Deputy Chief Constable, Lothian and Borders Police, UK  'Flin and Arbuthnot, both important voices in their respective spheres, managed to assemble a most impressive and gap-bridging collection of authors with a wide range of experience and ex

"This book makes a timely and valuable intervention in the rural-urban debate through the lens of ‘rural regeneration’ by providing a critical and multifaceted overview of rural policy changes over time. It highlights the challenges and opportunities through the examination of policy developments, power hierarchies and governance in different parts of the UK from national to local." –Dr Philomena de Lima, Director, Centre for Remote and Rural Studies , University of the Highlands and Islands, UK
"This text is an informative and insightful consideration of rural regeneration at a time when rural planning and development strategy in the UK is at a cross roads. It will no doubt be a key point of reference for both rural geographers and those concerned with the shifting direction of rural development policy more broadly. Highly recommended." –Jesse Heley, Aberystwyth University, UK
