Drawing on examples from widely different geographical contexts, this is an important contribution to a body of work that highlights the creative involvement of humans with environments and landscapes through their practices, perceptions, and complex imaginings.'

From the reviews:“This volume is a companion to Selected Papers of Frederick Mosteller (Springer, 2006) and A statistical Model: Frederick Mosteller’s Contributions to Statistics, Science, and Public Policy (Springer-Verlag, 1990). …It gives insights into the qualities that made Mosteller an enthusiastic instructor/teacher, prolific scholar, and a leader in statistical science. The volume showcases the personal details of a great scholar and gentleman —a human side! According to my quick counting, there are approximately 74 pictures of Mosteller—both individual and group shots, some of these historical in nature. …The editors have done a superb job in compiling this volume and I think they deserve a vote of thanks for their time and effort  to make this volume a reality and for sharing such interesting information about Frederick Mosteller. There is a wealth of information regarding  teaching, research, and many other interesting topics; an enjoyable read!” (Technometrics, August 2010, Vol. 52, No. 3)“All interested in statistical research, statistics in society, and academic life, particularly those for whom it is not too late to benefit from the wisdom in this book. … the book has much to offer those interested in the teaching of statistics, cross-disciplinary as well as narrow sense statistical research and academic administration … it is written for those who believe in the power of statistics to help make the world a better place. … This combination of textbook and personal memoir is very appealing.” (Terry Speed, International Statistical Review, Vol. 79 (1), 2011)“The fact that Mosteller wrote over 350 papers and 50 books with over 200 coauthors shows his wide influence in the statistical community. The core of this book is an autobiography that Mosteller prepared in the late 1980s … . This book provides a wonderful insight into Mosteller’s life and I believe it would be an enjoyable read for both statisticians and people outside of the statistical community … . One can learn much more about Mosteller’s contributions, his life, and his many collaborative efforts.” (Jim Albert, Journal of the American Statistical Association, Vol. 106 (493), March, 2011)“I have spent the last fortnight reading Professor Mosteller’s posthumously published autobiography, The Pleasures of Statistics. And what a pleasure it was to reacquaint myself with him! As always with Fred, I learned a great deal along the way. … The Pleasures of Statistics is a joy. It offers an inside view of how a kind, gentle, wise and first-class mind works. … It is too rich in wit and wisdom to rush through. And it is his last book.”­­­ (Howard Wainer, Psychometrika, Vol. 76 (1), January, 2011)“The book is a very interesting read. … Beyond the interesting read are insights from Mosteller into the research and teaching processes. These are insights that many academics could benefit from. … This provides valuable insights to a modern reader who typically would see only the polished research publications that came out at the end of the project. … For someone at the beginning of his/her academic career, the book provides many sound pieces of advice that become apparent ‘between the lines’.” (David Bellhouse, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 g)

"Today, the uncertain future of Russia both in the international and domestic arena is pushing the Kremlin to intensify its nation-building in the media. Studying attitudes in TV is thus extremely important, especially when it comes to national identity and national representations. This book goes beyond these representations and explains the patterns behind them, and is therefore an essential read for any scholar interested in the Russian media sphere or nationality issues in contemporary Russia."
Veera Laine, Europe-Asia Studies
"The analysis is sophisticated and multi-faceted, addressing verbal and visual representation, selection, and ordering of material contextualized by a particular channel’s identity...The book is a great resource for scholars in Slavic and Media studies, as well as specialists in social sciences interested in how television reflects and shapes debates about attitudes towards issues of ethnicity, race, and nation-building in contemporary Russia."
Elena Prokhorova, College of William & Mary, Slavic and East European Journal
"Many of the conclusions Hutchings and Tolz ... are backed by exhaustive research, detailed data, and an ongoing engagement with relevant theoretical literature."
