'Chang Liu's excellent study of peasants and social change in the century before the end of the War of Resistance builds on intellectual foundation, but by way of a research design goes to the next stage' - The China Journal, January 2008

“The abundant and carefully chosen examples in the text are selected in such a way as to illustrate the exposition and give some insights into what is going on. ... The book is very good. It will soon find its place in classrooms for most courses in ring theory. I personally liked it very much, and in 2014 our department included the book in the principal bibliography for the corresponding graduate course in noncommutative algebra.” (Plamen Koshlukov, Mathematical Reviews, 2018)“‘Introduction to noncommutative algebra’ is a very well written book and it is very pleasant to read. … I was very much impressed by the lists of exercises given at the end of each chapter as some of the exercises are not found in standard texts on ring theory.” (Veereshwar A. Hiremath, zbMATH 1334.16001, 2016)“Students of mathematics typically encounter examples of noncommutative algebraic structures in a first course in abstract algebra, but systematic study of such objects is reserved for a more advanced course. This offering by Brešar (Univ. of Ljubljana, Slovenia) is written in a style governed by two guiding principles. … an excellent choice for a first graduate course in noncommutative algebra. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty.” (D. S. Larson, Choice, Vol. 52 (10), June, 2015)

The Indian Crow, His Book

"At this crucial digital juncture in the history of the book, Simone Murray offers us a timely and reflective study of print culture. Interweaving theory with case studies that range from Edith Wharton to Harry Potter, this detailed yet lively and accessible volume is an important intervention for the field."
Professor Martin Paul Eve, Birkbeck, University of London


"This is the book we have long needed in the fields of book history, publishing studies, and digital media studies. In lively and accessible chapters, organized by theoretical and thematic focus, Simone Murray gives readers a chart for their explorations of changing disciplinary landscapes. The well-chosen learning exercises and resources which accompany each chapter will be appreciated by teachers and students alike."
Professor Alan Galey, University of Toronto


"Introduction to Contemporary Print Culture is the textbook many of us in book and publishing studies have been waiting for. While it is a commonplace that books are material objects, Murray illustrates how they are also, and more specifically, types of media at work in today’s networks and media systems."
Matthew Kirschenbaum, author of Bitstreams: The Future of Digital Literary Heritage and Track Changes: A Literary History of Word Processing


"Simone Murray brings her well-honed perspective, drawing on print culture, publishing studies, and book history, to create this ambitious and cohesive guide to the modern culture of the book: a tour through the overlapping worlds of authors, publishers, retailers, and the complex landscapes of reading and media culture."
John W Maxwell, Associate Professor of Publishing, Simon Fraser University

"From 'RobotDarnton' (a playful Twitter account) to #bookstagram, this book offers a succinct introduction to contemporary print and book culture that is simultaneously grounded in medium theory and book history. Simone Murray's new textbook is a very welcome addition to the field that we sometimes call 21st-century book studies, and students will appreciate the hands-on approach to theory and the reliable background information combined with thought-provoking exercises and illustrations."
Corinna Norrick-Rühl, Professor of Book Studies, University of Muenster, Germany



"From zine-making to Instapoetry, Simone Murray gives us a fascinating tour of contemporary print culture. Lively and readable, the book is an invaluable resource for classroom teaching or private study." 
Angus Phillips, Director of the Oxford International Centre for Publishing and co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Publishing

"Murray masterfully contextualizes twenty-first century print culture in theoretical　frameworks from book history, medium theory, political economy, and cultural policy. This theoretical underpinning is grounded in innovative learning exercises and relevant and current publishing industry examples. An excellent textbook that expertly balances theory and practice."
Rachel Noorda,Director of the Book Publishing Graduate Program and Assistant Professor in English at Portland State University

See Inside: New York

‘The very best social science always exposes a new idea and inaugurates original lines of enquiry leaving us wondering why we had never thought of it before. This volume inaugurates a very original approach to understanding the problem of time in societies emerging from conflict. Transitional justice scholars, specialists in peace processes and in victim studies can learn a great deal from the centrality given to the phenomenon of time in the volume. Transitional time, as we might call it, is theorised and discussed empirically in a rich array of case studies, making the volume essential reading for those whose eyes have now been opened to what was so obvious that we overlooked it in the past.’
John D Brewer, Professor of Post Conflict Studies, Queen’s University Belfast. Author of Peace Processes: A Sociological Approach

‘With detailed case studies from Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, this impressive collection puts time and temporality at the front and center not only of studies of peacebuilding and transitional justice but also, and as importantly, of sociological inquiry at large.’
Javier Auyero, Professor of Sociology, University of Texas, Austin. Author of Patients of the State. The Politics of Waiting in Argentina.

‘Few will contest that issues of time and temporality are central to transitional justice and peace building. However, until recently these issues have received surprisingly little scholarly attention. This book brings a very welcome change to this situation. The volume offers a very rich and innovative collection of essays that are highly relevant for both theoretical analysis and policy making. Strongly recommended to all interested in transitional justice and conflict resolution as well as the sociology or ethnography of time.’

"Today, understanding our past is more urgent than ever to inform our future. This book makes a fantastic job of discussing fundamental issues to make sense of history in organization studies. The book is a must-read for all academics who are interested in producing solid organizational studies historical accounts as well as to understand how history has been discussed in organization studies." 
Professor Rafael Alcadipani, Fundação Getúlio Vargas, FGV-EAESP, São Paulo

"The authors in this volume venture audaciously into the interdisciplinary worlds of management studies and history. The outcome is a book which marks a serious advance in showing how business and management can incorporate history more dynamically in research, and benefit greatly as a result."
Professor Geoffrey Jones, Isidor Straus Professor of Business History, Harvard Business School

"This volume takes an important next step in the further development of the ‘historical turn’ in organization studies by bringing together theoretical, methodological and empirical insights. Through compelling narratives from all parts of society, it demonstrates how the interplay between history and organization studies advances our reflexivity and ability to engage in the future."
Professor Majken Schultz, Centre for Organizational Time, Copenhagen Business School

"There is a need for historical organization studies. This book not only explains why this is the case but also what it means. The rich collection of empirical examples helps us understand the various approaches that can be taken and how they can contribute to organization studies. Highly recommended reading!"
Professor Eero Vaara, Hanken School of Economics and Saïd Business School, University of Oxford
"This collection demonstrates the extent to which the promise of Historical Organization Studies – the interplay between creative historical research and innovative organizational theory – is becoming a reality. Along with an introduction by four leading scholars that maps out the intellectual terrain of the field, the chapters demonstrate the variety of different ways in which scholars are integrating history and theory to generate new insights about organizations and organizing. I would especially recommend the volume for early career researchers interested in learning about a dynamic and emerging field of organizational scholarship."
Professor Dan Wadhwani, University of Southern California and Copenhagen Business School

Ellingson offers a compelling argument for acknowledging the already embodied nature of qualitative research, and flexible tools for embracing embodiment as a methodological resource. Embodiment in Qualitative Research is the book qualitative researchers have been waiting for—a must-read for scholars committed to reflexive and socially responsive qualitative research.
Professor Lynn M. Harter, Co-Director, Barbara Geralds Institute for Storytelling and Social Impact, Ohio University

For years poststructuralist and posthumanist researchers have been making important arguments about why bodies matter. Through her engaging and enlightening text, Laura L. Ellingson shows us how. By asking and answering important questions about how we embody the research we do, Ellingson has created a valuable sourcebook for researchers. This well-researched, well-articulated book is nothing short of a game changer for qualitative inquiry. 
Jimmie Manning, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Communication, Northern Illinois University

Ellingson does it again, reimagining and and rearticulating the qualitative landscape in this heartfelt, theoretically-informed, and unapologetically eclectic book on how to "do body" in qualitative research. In an era that celebrates the largely disembodied activities of online data collection and data analysis through computer software, Ellingson pragmatically and vulnerably shows how and why embodied humanity—in all its imperfection and overflowing abundance—is valuable at every stage of the qualitative research process.
Sarah J. Tracy, Ph.D., Jeanne Lind Herberger Professor, The Hugh Downs School of Human Communication, Arizona State University
Laura provides eloquent examples where she creatively writes her own and others’ bodies into her research. Reading these descriptively rich and flowing sections of prose, I felt like I was getting to know Laura, her passion for research, her attention to specific details in the field, her quirky way of reflecting on her own disability, and her strange hankering for sugar-free fizzy pop.
