Content and Object

'Morgen Witzel’s book on 'Management Consultancy' sets out new ground in a field which is insufficiently explored in the academic literature. It deals with both the conceptual and practical dimensions of consultancy in a readable and interesting manner. His coverage of this very interesting topic is most thorough and his analysis is indeed robust, setting the coverage in a truly global business setting. The book is clearly written and accessible to not only undergraduates and MBAs in the subject but also interested practitioners.' -Malcolm Warner, Professor and Emeritus Fellow, Wolfson College and Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, UK
'This book brings the landscape of management consultancy to life. You’ll discover how management consultants engage clients, work with problems, add value, and make a difference. For anyone thinking about management consultancy as a career, making their way in the field, or wondering whether to hire a firm, this provides invaluable guidance.' - Nigel Guy Linacre, Co-Founder of LeadNow
'Witzel acknowledges that management consultancy is a vast and changing subject and so it is no mean feat to have written such a well-structured and engaging book. Students of business will find a rigorous analysis of what it is to be a management consultant, supported with practical exercises and a range of global case studies. However, the relevance and value of the content extends much further. With its detailed overview of subjects from client engagement to ethics and professional standards, Management Consultancy earns its place on the bookshelves of management consultants, both generalists and specialists as well as their clients.' - Alison Hogan, Managing Partner, Anchor Partners Ltd, UK

A breezy, fast-moving read that&#8212;much like its titular namesake&#8212;makes the majority of its shots."

The Pugville Chronicles: Making It Home

Spanger & Skilbrei reach beyond disciplinary silos in posing novel epistemological questions that push researchers, practitioners, and services providers to reconsider status quo approaches to, and understandings of, transactional sex.　　By explicitly and fearlesslyconnecting political and theoretical issues, this edited collection offers a novel empirical contribution to an all-too-often polarized field of research.
Susan C. Dewey, Associate Professor, Gender & Women's Studies, University of Wyoming, USA.
For the first time, we have an interdisciplinary collection of work dedicated exclusively to sex work/prostitution research methodologies. In this inspiring, ground-breaking collection written by a number of key international scholars in the field, editors Spanger and Skilbrei urge us to think critically about the politics, power relations, and positionality in research processes and knowledge production about the sale of sex, and about how we can engage in informed and reflexive (feminist) research practices about the subject. A must read for anyone considering embarking upon sex work research.

Kamala Kempadoo, Professor, Department of Social Science, York University, Canada. Co-editor of Global Sex Workers: Rights, Resistance and Redefinition, author of Sexing the Caribbean: Gender, Race and Sexual Labour. 
The study of prostitution appears one of the most ethiclly challenging and contentious areas of research in the social sciences. Avoiding stereotyped representations of this complex and diverse area of study, this edited collection provides a balanced and timely assessment of the way that those researching prostitution are obliged to situate their studies in a wider political and social context. A must read for all those who are researching prostitution, and an important contribution to debates in feminist epistemology and methodology'

‘This brilliant and timely collection explores the psychology of urban spaces: the dark corners, the sharp angles, the walkways and stairs, and the hidden streets. The city is discussed as if it were a human being: having a soul and an ego, harbouring secrets, and dealing withits shadows. 
　Travelling through the psychological landscapes of cities and towns around the world, the essays in the collection deal with the issues that have haunted metropolitan spaces since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution: crime and violence, social fragmentation, unfriendly architecture, poverty and pollution. Ultimately, the book raises the question of the place of the individual in the complex and confusing environment that is the modern city.’ – Dr. Helena Bassil-Morozow, Lecturer in Media and Communication, Glasgow Caledonian University and the author of The Trickster and the System

"This collection of papers is an excellent introduction to, and overview of, research in the field of Historical Ecology. The topic is especially timely, as archaeologists and historians think increasingly about how our understanding of interrelations between humans and their environments in the past can help us to understand changes happening in the present and to plan for the future. Chapters include discussion of theory and method, as well as case studies that demonstrate the application of the approach to changes in early societies in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America. This book is valuable both for its explanation of the subject of Historical Ecology and for the information presented in the case studies."
Peter Wells, University of Minnesota, USA
"The work of Carole Crumley has impacted a broad audience of anthropological archaeologists for several decades now, with both her championing of Historical Ecology and her early transdisciplinary introduction of the heterarchy concept markedly influencing the field. By bringing together several contributors who have been significantly affected by her long and productive career, this collection is a robust encounter with Crumley’s influence and how her clear thinking has profoundly altered our assessment of archaeological method and theory."
