"This book is exactly what it claims to be on the cover – it is a well-mapped guide for classroom teachers, students or parents who are looking for ways to engage young students in reading activities that will develop their critical literacy and their critical thinking skills. […] I would recommend this book to all primary school teachers, as well as to second-level English and SEN teachers." – Jean Johnston, ILSA Quarterly 
"The voices of children and teachers, richly engaged with picturebooks, resound enthrallingly in this enthusiastic, thoughtful and superbly well-informed account of productive classroom practice." - UKLA Academic Book Award Panel
"This book brings together into one voice the best of an academic, scholar and educational practitioner working to develop the quality of the educational experience for children in circumstances where values of humanity often seem to be, at best ignored, and at worst felt to be voilating contradictions" - Mary Huxtable, Educational Journal of Living Theories
"I would cerntainly recommend this book for teachers eager to put their students at the heart of an authentic learning environment where teachers and pupils create and negotiate meaning together" - Duncan McCarthy, InTouch Magazine 
"Mary Roche has created a bright, engaging, and academically rigorous study of the powerful role that picture books play in the primary classroom. She has just been highly commended for its significant contribution to the teaching of English at the UKLA academic book awards. " - Martin Galway, Herts for Learning

"Through an examination of the intersection of military force and elite power in the formative years of modern Chinese history, McCord (George Washington Univ.) seeks to demonstrate the importance of military force within elite power during that period. The volume contains five chapters. Chapter 1 shows how local military power played an important role in establishing and expanding regional elite power. Chapter 2 looks into how military command became the foundation of political power and a source for personal wealth. Chapter 3 discusses the source of power for local militia leaders. Chapter 4 illustrates how power was derived from military command. Chapter 5 probes how military professionals influenced the structure of elite power and politics in their home communities. In the conclusion, the author suggests that the end results of recurring military conflict were “transformations in society and government that ultimately reshaped and limited the capacity for military force.” --S. K. Ma, California State University, Los Angeles

Aigen’s latest work is a tour de force that considers over fifty years of scholarship in Music Therapy. It represents a coming of age treatment that will introduce readers from many disciplines to the depth, complexities, discourses and debates that occupy our continuous challenge to understand and articulate the critical and transformative role of music in our lives. – Carolyn Kenny, Professor of Human Development and Indigenous Studies, Antioch University, USA
Kenneth Aigen skillfully performs a thought-provoking examination of a number of debates within the discourse of music therapy. He promotes a pluralistic outlook but does not step back from substantial critique of positions he finds problematic. We have, then, a challenging yet inviting book we should read with care and imagination. – Brynjulf Stige, Professor in Music Therapy at the University of Bergen, and Head of Research at GAMUT – The Grieg Academy Music Therapy Research Centre, UoB and Uni Health, Uni Research, Norway
I highly recommend this text to all music therapists, and others interested in understanding theoretical underpinnings of our field. - Clare O’Callaghan, Music Therapist and Honorary Associate Professor, University of Melbourne
In this philosophical treatment, Aigen (New York Univ.; president of the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Foundation and past president of the American Association for Music Therapy) takes an academic approach to defining and discussing the issues of this multidimensional profession...the volume includes tables and an extensive bibliography. Summing Up: Recommended. - V. S. Xenakis, formerly, State University of New York College at Cortland in CHOICE
The Study of Music Therapy: Current Issues and Concepts is a groundbreaking publication from Ken Aigen, one of the most pro-lific scholars in our field...This book is invaluable for practicing music therapists and for professionals outside the field who have a scholarly interest in music therapy...I strongly recommend this book. - Lisa Summer, Anna Maria College
The text should assist music therapists to locate and articulate theoretical stances informing their work, conceptualisation of their value, and potentially increase tolerance and shared understanding. . . . . I highly recommend this text to all music therapists, and others interested in understanding theoretical underpinnings of our field. -Australian Journal of Music Therapy 
This book is a welcome addition to the scholarly music therapy (MT) literature. I cannot think of anything similar, and yet it is obvious that such a book is needed. It presents, discusses, and synthesizes topics that are rarely found in existing books or articles. . . . Aigen is a well-read and up-to-date scholar, so there is plenty of inspiration and discussion material in every part and chapter. . . . Aigen loves debate, and he is excellent in finding poignant formulations for standpoints that are not always easily formulated or properly distinguished. I think all topics are well chosen as related to the dialogical purpose of the book, the intention of multidisciplinary exchange and understanding. - Lars Ole Bonde, Nordic Journal of Music Therapy

'The third edition of this valuable book by Chris Nobes highlights the continuing importance of international classification in accounting even in a World where International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are growing in importance. Nobes demonstrates comprehensively how we can use international classification schemes to better understand continuing variations in national systems as well as the different extents and also ways IFRS has been adopted and implemented.' 
Sid Gray, Professor, University of Sydney, Australia.
'Classifications are invaluable aids in research as well as in teaching. That applies to international accounting as much as to languages, legal systems, biology and many other disciplines. This new edition provides a much needed update on Christopher Nobes’ work on the classification of financial reporting systems for a time when IFRS have been internationally widely implemented but, for many reasons outlined in this book, financial reporting continues to differ internationally.'


Lisa Evans, Professor, University of Stirling, UK.
'Drawing on his extensive knowledge in accounting as well as other subjects – history, natural sciences, humanities and social sciences – Professor Nobes turns the art of classification into a tool for seeing the accounting discipline in a wider perspective.'

Erlend Kvaal, Professor, BI Norwegian Business School, Norway.
'This book is very well written and constitutes a major contribution to the international accounting literature. It provides a refreshing antidote to the rather fatalistic view of some commentators who suggest that the advent of IFRS might imply the end of international accounting as an important field of study. In this regard, the analysis offered in this book has opened up new avenues for research in comparative international accounting and will be welcomed by students, teachers, researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers in this field.'
Charles Elad, The International Journal of Accounting

&#9733; "Cordell's illustrations have the loose, but quite detailed, feel of Quentin Blake, and depict Aunt J's untidy home filled with memorabilia. The font size changes, depending on the knocking, shouting, barking, grunting, or crowing going on at each moment, which adds liveliness to an already vigorously engaging story. A fit ending will please children who will be enthralled with the action and entertainment Aunt J's tale brings."&mdash;Booklist, Starred Review &#9733; "This quirky readaloud is accentuated by Matthew Cordell&rsquo;s scribbly pen lines and watercolor, showing great detail in Aunt Josephine&rsquo;s grand adventures and adding background bonuses that are bound to make rereads interesting. Aunt J is comically verbose in her stories, and younger viewers will likely pick up on some new vocabulary through her tale. This hilarious story would be well suited for a lapsit storytime or any situation that requires a good laugh."&mdash;The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, Starred Review &#9733; "Large, handwritten block onomatopoeic words will draw in readers&rsquo; eyes while perusing this picture book. . . . The book culminates in an ending young readers won&rsquo;t see coming, and one that will certainly illicit more than one or two giggles. The vocabulary is complex, which will likely prompt some questions and discussion. Cordell&rsquo;s illustrations, done in pen, ink, and watercolor, are just the right level of humor for the narrative."&mdash;School Library Journal, Starred Review "Text and art duel with each other to make the antics more and more outlandish, and every page-turn yields an unexpected and wonderfully ridiculous plot development. . . . All the while, someone keeps knocking at the door, where the perfect ending awaits on the other side."&mdash;The Horn Book "More female-powered action from an inspired creative team."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews "Cordell&rsquo;s loopy, frenetic drawings savor her journey&rsquo;s every inanity: sailing a bathtub, riding a whale. . . . any vehicle for Cordell&rsquo;s sweet-tempered mayhem is a treat."&mdash;Publishers Weekly
