The Whale That Lit the World

“This thought-provoking and highly original work, relevant especially for students of the anthropology of childhood, supplies an important new chapter to native Siberian ethnography. Highly recommended for anyone seriously interested in today's Siberia, all levels."  ·  Choice

	“This ethnography of young people’s heroic efforts to bring into being a different future marks an important contribution not only to the anthropology of this region, but also to the anthropology of postsocialism. Without doubt, the book will become a widely read ethnography in both of these fields of specialization, but it should also be read as an important addition to the growing body of work on the anthropology of childhood and youth.”  ·  The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute

	“This book is remarkable because of the detailed knowledge of the milieu the author examines (it is her native village), but equally because of the originality of the chosen themes: on the one hand, that of childhood in Siberia, a subject only rarely dealt with; on the other, that of the future which goes against the tendency of anthropologists to study the present in the light of the past.”  ·  L’Homme

	“…an original and thought-provoking study [that is]firmly situated in the relevant Russian, Soviet and post-Soviet ethnographic and historical literature… It also makes excellent use of the extensive Russian ethnographic work in this region.”  ·  Julie Cruikshank, University of British Columbia

	“…a very good study, compellingly and confidently written, which covered a relatively unknown subject…The ethnography of this book is excellent.”  ·  Heather Montgomery, The Open University, UK

&ldquo;In Good Drinks, the endlessly cool Julia Bainbridge has created a book that will not only change the way you think about booze-free drinks, but get you psyched about making them. With a well-curated team of bartenders, Bainbridge&rsquo;s smart writing, lush photography, and recipes that pull from a diverse flavor profile, Good&#160;Drinks will&#160;tempt any world-curious person to start giving more thought&#160;to what they&rsquo;re drinking.&rdquo;&mdash;Andy&#160;Baraghani, senior editor at Bon&#160;App&eacute;tit &ldquo;With&#160;Good Drinks, the wonderful Bainbridge strips away the tired tropes surrounding &lsquo;mocktails&rsquo; and shows us&#160;just how exciting the world of non-alcoholic drinking can be. Crucially, the book gives practical insight to a new set of tools, rules, and applications to ensure these drinks hit as consistently&mdash;and with as much brilliance&mdash;as their boozy counterparts.&rdquo;&mdash;Ryan&#160;Chetiyawardana, a.k.a.
