'A timely elucidation of the poetics of use as the fundamental ground on which any architecture of lasting value must be built. The ten works examined exemplify the fusion of the practical and the poetic, remove our focus from exterior form to the inhabited space within, and reveal that a building's most important use is to enrich our experience and enhance the life that takes place in it.' - Robert McCarter, Ruth and Norman Moore Professor of Architecture, Washington University in St. Louis, USA
'In this provocative and well-documented book, Grabow and Spreckelmeyer argue that conventional definitions of functionalism should be expanded, thus enriching our appreciation of significant works of modern architecture.' - David G. De Long, Professor Emeritus of Architecture, University of Pennsylvania, USA
'Compelling in its arguments and clear in its exposition, this book resituates the concept of use at the center of architectural theory and practice where it belongs. Through discussions of literary texts, paintings, music, and cultural history, we see how the art of building can not only accommodate the patterns of our lives but give them legible and beautiful expression.' - David Leatherbarrow, Professor and Chair, Graduate Architecture Group, University of Pennsylvania, USA
'This wonderfully clear-headed book serves as an antidote to the empty formalism of so much of today’s architectural avant-garde. Grabow and Spreckelmeyer show, in ten eloquent case-studies, how great architecture arises out of an elevated understanding of human activities and social relationships; and how the best buildings don’t just function, but inspire us to do and to be well. This book demonstrates how the meaning of buildings often comes from the institutions they house, providing architecture with its content as well as its contents.' - Thomas Fisher, Professor of Architecture and Dean, College of Design, University of Minnesota, USA
'A pair of well-credentialed architecture professors, Grabow and Spreckelmeyer (both, Univ. of Kansas), aim a pair of much-needed barbs at the profession’s stars and their boosters and wannabes: pay greater attention to functions than to novel forms, and make well-functioning buildings pleasant places to be. Summing Up: Recommended. All readership levels.' – CHOICE, C. W. Westfall, University of Notre Dame

Essential German Grammar is exceptionally straightforward to use, full of useful exercises and examples and written with an eye for salient detail. I would recommend it confidently to students at A level and beyond.　 It is not just a valuable source of information; the book also explains cogently why you can’t just ‘do without’ grammatical knowledge. It will help learners appreciate that, far from an inconvenience, the striving for a mastery of grammar is absolutely central to successful advanced language learning Geoffrey Plow, University College School, UK

Here now is finally a German grammar that stands out from the crowd: modern, pleasing on the eye and bursting with self-correcting exercises, backed up by a complimentary website to make it a book of its era. The ideal grammar to work through prior to taking on the ultimate reference work on the topic, Martin Durrell’s Hammer’s German Grammar and Usage. Bruce Donaldson, formerly at The University of Melbourne, Australia

Clearly set out, this useful reference work is student-friendly. The two colour design makes examples clear and easy to access; contemporary text extracts, amusing illustrations together with exercises (and answers) as well as explanations in English take the frustration out of learning German grammar. Essential German Grammar is a highly recommended addition to any post-beginner’s German course. Kathleen Thorpe, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg 

"Students of German with English language backgrounds will welcome the second edition of the Essential German Grammar. It is an excellent, user friendly stand-alone Grammar which presents the basic structures of German in a clear and systematic manner. Grammatical concepts are explained in a glossary which teachers too will find useful. The emphasis on learning rules with examples of authentic usage will be very helpful for Learners who wish to move to an advanced level of competence in German. This well designed volume is highly recommended." Anil Bhatti, Jawaharlal Nehru University, India
An invaluable tool for every serious student of German. Concise and clearly written - yet covering all the key elements of German grammar - it is without question one of the most user-friendly grammars currently available. Seán Allan, University of Warwick, UK

"Is mind a natural machine or mechanism of some kind? The interested reader could do no better than consult this masterful work. Now in its third edition, The Mechanical Mind remains, without a doubt, the best reader-friendly introduction to core philosophical issues concerning the nature of mind and mental representation, and the role of computation and representation in the sciences of mind. It is the perfect book for all those intrigued by mind and its place in nature." - Andy Clark, University of Edinburgh, UK
Praise for previous editions:
"Terrifically useful ...It gives the best simple introduction that I know to the computational theory of the mind." - John Searle, University of California at Berkeley, USA
"Crane deploys his knowledge of the field with a deft touch. ... The writing style is refreshingly vernacular and relaxed, but not to the extent of avoiding technical discussions where these are required for understanding." - Jonathan Knowles, Minds and Machines
"Wonderful and intellectually extremely accessible ... It is the best treatment of the intentionality of the mental that I have yet come across." - David Armstrong, Pysche
"Terrific: both good philosophy and a very useful text ... Wonderful!" - Ned Block, New York University, USA

"...a succinct and thorough review of the major issues in the study of pragmatics...would serve well as the main text for an introductory course or seminar on pragmatics....also useful for second language teachers and researchers interested in this related field who wish to have a good resource book."&#8212;Modern Language Journal"...provides a strong foundation of work on pragmatics that will give cognitive scientists a solid understanding of the important basic problems of natural language understanding that have previously been dealt with by philosophers and linguists....filled with interesting phenomena that deserve further psychological investigation."&#8212;American Journal of Psychology"I heartily recommend P&NLU as a well-written, concise introduction to modern linguistic pragmatics. As an undergraduate textbook, it is ideal."&#8212;LanguagePraise for the first edition:"...certainly fills a need in a growing market of interdisciplinary audiences needing a basic understanding of natural language semantics and principles of information communication....may be very effective in triggering their interest and motivating further study in the field."&#8212;Alice G.B. ter MeulenIndiana University, Bloomington"I am happy to say that I liked it much better than pragmatics texts I had used in the past, and that my course was more successful overall than it had been before. The students found it clearly written and (relatively) easy to understand. The examples are especially clear. In general, then, it is excellent, and I intend to use it for the same course this coming year."&#8212;Jeanette S. DeCarricoPortland State University
