Praise for Financial Innovations and the Welfare of  Nations   `In an increasingly connected world financial flows and  innovation have taken center stage. For anyone who wants to understand  how this new international arrangement affects one's life, business,  and nation, this book is a must read.'   Walter B. Wriston, Former CEO, Citigroup   `This is a first-rate conference volume that covers all of the  salient dimensions of innovation in modern financial markets. For  innovations to contribute to the System in a durable way, they must be  perceived as value-adding for both intermediaries and end-users, and  the innovative structures must carry acceptable systemic risks. The  essays in this collection provide a compelling overview of the  innovation process and its impact on the financial dynamics of the  global economy.'   Ingo Walter, Charles Simon Chair in Applied Financial Economics  and Director, New York University Solomon Center

A very useful addition in the field of diaspora studies, which is an extremely important emerging discipline.  -          J. C. Sharma, Former Member Secretary, High Level Committee on Indian Diaspora … This thought-provoking book addresses the correlation between development and global diasporas from an interdisciplinary perspective. It has the merit of looking in-depth into systematic and prospective contributions by diasporas to the development in their home countries, including profound impact on poverty reduction.… [T]he book is a leap forward in the comprehension of socio-economic, cultural and policy dimensions of global diasporas….  Dr. Armen Baibourtian, Senior Adviser, United Nations, Armenia  … This book is an excellent attempt – a creative brainstorm of fresh ideas and visions – to provide well-embedded case studies and theoretical new insights.… In this well-edited and ambitious volume, the authors focus on diasporas being the human face of the globalization process. The book is a must read for students, scholars and policy makers in the field of diasporas and development. - Prof. Gijsbert Oonk, Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication, Rotterdam, Netherlands; author of Settled Strangers. Asian Business Elites in East Africa, 1800-2000  … This book links the economic, social and cultural aspects of diasporas in Asia, Africa, Europe, North America and the Caribbean. In bringing these themes together for the varied diasporas, it gives a comparative picture across perspectives, regions and histories. It also usefully connects this discussion to policy directions regarding the use of knowledge networks, transfer of skills and the flow of remittances. - Prof. Supriya Singh, Sociology of Communications, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia  This book is an invaluable contribution to the growing literature on global diasporas. With its focus on socio-economic, cultural and policy perspectives, this edited volume serves to enrich our understanding in today's context of globalisation, neo-liberalism and transnationalism. The book will be of interest to scholars, students and policy makers. Sahoo and Pattanaik have done a great job. -          Prof. Ravinder Barn, Professor of Social Policy, University of London, London, UK  Sahoo and Pattanaik offer the reader a path-opening and comprehensive view of the complex relationship of diaspora and development. Relying on an impressive collection of authors from various parts of the world, the book displays the many dimensions of the diaspora-development nexus (economy, finance, knowledge, political engagement, exclusion, gender and culture…) through a selection of highly relevant cases in different continents. This is a timely scholarly initiative, particularly relevant when this issue has obviously become one of the most important ones, in our times.-          Prof. Stéphane Dufoix, University of Paris Ouest Nanterre, France, author of Diasporas. Sadananda Sahoo and B.K. Pattanaik’s superb collection of interdisciplinary essays provides the readers with insights into a wide range of issues related to the complex and multifaceted reality of diasporas in the global arena. It is a wonderful addition to the existing literature, while it offers new approaches to the nexus between diasporas and international development.Prof. Pedro J. Oiarzabal, University of Deusto, Basque Country, Spain, co-author of Diasporas in the New Media Age.

"Understanding Autism provides a much-needed and thorough history of autism. In addition, it makes a convincing case for incorporating affective relationships into science and technology studies and our understandings of the foundational elements of expertise. At moments in the book, however, the tension between affect and science are incompletely resolved. These moments of tension will likely prove elucidating in future research."---Marissa King, American Journal of Sociology

“This unique book brings together the various
aspects of the past, present, and potential future study and research of
post-traumatic arthritis (PTA) in one place. … The intended audience is those
working in the fields of rheumatology, orthopedic surgery, bioengineering,
physical therapy, and healthcare policy. … There is no other book that can
compare with this one, as it assimilates the knowledge from all the
subdisciplines that feed into this important topic that has received too little
attention.” (Samuel J. Chmell, Doody’s

"This book is a great collection of recent material of recent investigation on wavelet and time-frequency analysis that is not covered in the literature.... The book is an important source for all readers interested in a broad perspective. In particular, a wide variety of applications are presented that are important for interdisciplinary collaborative research."

"Frank s study presents a rigorously constructed new paradigm for understanding the multiply centered experiences of migration and displacement. The literary expression of modern exilic experience emerges from a spatially and culturally complex map and calls for a redefinition of such categories as migrant and exile literature. Theoretically well-grounded, historically informed, and written in a clear and fluid style, Migration and Literature refines and redefines the parameters of exilic writing by shifting the focus from authorial biography to the concept of literature of migration, as marked by our social and textual experience of modernity rooted in migratory sensibilities. The book is an outstanding contribution to the growing body of critical work on transnational literatures." - Azade Seyhan, Fairbank Professor in the Humanities and Professor of German and Comparative Literature, Bryn Mawr College and author of Writing Outside the Nation

"In this important contribution to the contemporary debate on the novel, Frank argues that the postcolonial theme of migration in an increasingly changing world is also profoundly relevant for the late twentieth-century European novel. The book blends insightful analyses of works by Günter Grass, Milan Kundera, Salman Rushdie, and Jan Kjærstad with a superb discussion of narrative theories from Hegel to Franco Moretti." - Thomas Pavel, Professor in Romance Languages and Literatures, University of Chicago and author of La pensée du roman

"Thanks to Frank s book, the concept of homelessness has now morphed from a trope of self-indulgent intellectual masochism into an angle describing a basic epistemological condition and the dominant form of the novel in the early twenty-first century." - Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht, Albert Guérard Professor in Literature, Stanford University and author of Production of Presence

"While at first glance the comparison of the four chosen authors seems a daring project, Frank conceptualises his Ansatzpunkt well and manages to broaden the scope of migration on both the formal and thematic levels . . . Frank s approach of incorporating biographical information in the interpretation of the literature where appropriate works well with the novelists chosen. In including an author who does not have a personal migratory background, Frank convincingly argues for expanding the literary designation of migrant literature to migration literature and thus draws attention to the ongoing social processes which find their way into the aesthetics of a 'migration literature'." - Kult Online
