Performance Funding for Higher Education: What are the Mechanisms? What are the Impacts?

This textbook is a tour de force in its ambitions and achievement The book is impressively comprehensive, demonstrates appropriately rigorous scholarship, and yet remains lucid and interesting. I have learnt a great deal from it, not least that the scale of the historically cumulative crime committed against people with a mental disorder amounts nationally, if not yet jurisprudentially to a crime against humanity This textbook should appear in every medical library
and on every psychiatrist's bookshelf, and representative content should be incorporated into the curricula and examinations of medical students and trainee psychiatrists.

Mental Health and Human Rights

This treatise is a timely and impressive contribution to the study of breach of confidence in all its varied manifestations. It should appeal to practitioners and academics alike, and surely deserves a wide readership.

The Protection of Confidential Information

Gurry on Breach of Confidence

A powerfully argued, compelling and strikingly original contribution which deserves a central place in contemporary debates about the Convention and human rights in Europe...  The author is...  to be congratulated not only for producing such a ground-breaking and erudite study, but for opening up a potentially rich and fruitful research agenda to which he and others can contribute for a long time to come.

A New History of Western Art

"Mark McKergow’s book provides a complete and extensive account of the development of Solution Focused practice, summarises the current state of knowledge in the field and looks at possible changes and advances in this part of the therapy world. I know of no clearer record of its history and the consequential events." 
Dr Alasdair Macdonald, retired consultant psychiatrist and freelance researcher, author of Solution Focused Therapy: Theory, Research & Practice 

"A fascinating account of the past, present and future of SFBT that inspires us solution-focused practitioners to ‘stretch our world’ to notice key developments and invites others to ‘stretch their world’ to regard SFBT as a viable approach!"
Peter Sundman, Taitoba Institute, Helsinki, Finland 

"My coaching school and I have been waiting for this book! Finally, we can read about the most recent developments in Solution Focused thinking and practice, and all in a nutshell! I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to understand Solution Focus in order to enhance their Solution Focused work."
Kirsten Dierolf, MCC, Owner and Founder of SolutionsAcademy, ICF accredited coach training school, Germany

"What Mark　McKergow achieves with this book is quite phenomenal. Beyond an enthralling history of　the development of Solution Focus practice, it offers new insights in the philosophy　of therapy as such. This work will be an instant classic and a reference for everybody　who aspires to be an effective, efficient and respectful coach and therapist."
Anton Stellamans, Il Faro, Belgium 

"Mark McKergow takes the reader through the story of Solution Focused practice from its conception and early formative influences through the dilemmas and developments that led to the effective, efficient, ethical and elegant form of the practice that is most widely taught and used today.　 The book is invaluable not only for how to do good SF practice, but also about what happens when we do, why it works, and how we can explain this convincingly and powerfully to others. It is also a really great read!"　
Suzi Curtis, Clinical Psychologist, Accreditation Lead for the UK Association for Solution Focused Practice.　

"This book provides a beautifully straightforward, comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art of solution-focused brief therapy and where it sits in the larger therapeutic landscape. Excitingly, it goes the extra mile by exploring how we can make sense of the effectiveness of this special kind of therapy through the lens of the avant-garde enactivist movement in philosophy and cognitive science. It is a 　full package that serves as an exciting starting point for looking afresh at how we might better enhance mental health and wellbeing, effectively and efficiently."
Daniel D. Hutto. Senior Professor of Philosophical Psychology, Head of the School of Liberal Arts, University of Wollongong, Australia

"Mark McKergow offers fresh and exciting insights on the evolving practice of Solution Focus Brief Therapy in this new book… by looking back at its genesis and emergence as a distinct and new kind of treatment; analysing its present principles and aesthetic, before building a new paradigm, which explores the question of how we continue to ‘stretch the world’ for our clients and practitioners. Turning these complex problems into solutions speaks loudly to my instincts as a coach and improviser. Exploring Mark's new insights, ideas and methods will become the bedrock of my work with individuals and groups for years to come."
Andrew Paine, Life Coach

"I can think of no other book that extends the classic canon of the development of Solution Focused practice as well as this one. The world has been awaiting a description of next steps in the continuous, and unstoppable, development of the practice. Mark has been at the centre of it all, but also pleasantly looking beyond its horizons. This book captures the twists and turns that have been evident for quite some time, both viewable from a far and from its midst. It is an amazing achievement."
Jonas Wells, Coordination manager of South Dalarna Coordination Agency & chair of the Swedish Association of Solution-Focused Practitioners
"Using the metaphor of an art gallery, Mark Mckergow provides a clear process for the professional to track where they are in the conversation and exactly what question to ask the client next. This book takes the SolutionFocused Approach to a new level, a new evolution, and into a new era."
Elliott Connie, President and Founder of the　Solution Focused Universe

Wright and Clark's inspiring book is a much-needed addition to the largely neglected area of palliative care research in Africa.  It provides a thorough background in current challenges and opportunities for key stakeholders, including service providers, researchers, and donors among many others.  Let us hope that the next review of palliative care across Africa will show an increased accessibility for care.

This is a remarkable and very welcome volume ... Technically, the edition is of a high standard. The text and apparatus are presented separately, with both commentary and textual notes at the end of the book, and it soon becomes intuitive to the user to flick backwards and forwards between the two ... the finishing touch is provided by a section of eight plates in full colour, most of them of manuscripts, which gives a fine sense of the material on which the volume
is based. In all, this is a splendid book.

“The book helps in exploring the diverse microbial partners, its importance’s and mechanisms of the actions for proper understanding of the topic. … we enjoyed reading this book as the editor tried to cover almost all fundamental and applied aspects of the plant-microbe interactions. As a final word, the book can be described as a book for all.” (Rama K. Dubey, Vishal Tripathi and P. C. Abhilash, Frontiers in Plant Science, Vol. 6, 2015)
