Marshall Boswell, a pioneer in the study of Wallace, writes with dexterity and lucidity here about some of the author’s favorite subjects: influence, autobiography, self-consciousness, and the need for literature to respond to what came before. Catching allusions and subtle critiques at every turn, Boswell weaves together predecessors, successors, and the man himself in a way that readers will find both instructive and fascinating.

The Wallace Effect

"This book is a valuable addition to the available literature on the first year....the topics selected for inclusion are important for consideration not only by educators who work directly with first-year students, but also by those who determine educational policy at the institutional, state, and national levels."&#8212;Journal of College Student Development"Each chapter is competently written and appear's to fulfill the editor's charge to link research, theory, and application. Those in student services and those with direct responsibilities for freshman may find useful research here..."&#8212;PsycCRITIQUES"The volume offers a compelling combination of empirical research and theoretical underpinnings to examine and explain the issues [of the first-year experience], and explicitly considers the implications of findings for institutional practice. ...this highly readable volume offers contemporary perspectives on the first-year experience. It would be a useful reference for anyone responsible for planning and/or assessing first-year programs and services."&#8212;The Electronic Air

'An interesting book which contains valuable explanations of how situations generate anxiety. Fascinating case studies give insight to the world of children and their reaction to traumatic experiences, often transferred to daily life in the classroom. The teacher is seen as the focus of these reactions and the person required to attempt resolution but few secondary teachers have the freedom to do this.' - Dorothy M Amos
'Well worth reading as a carefully researched work on what underlies the behaviour and feelings of both pupils and teachers in stressful situations but could we look for a similar work relating to teenage pupils?' - Dorothy M Amos

'An excellent example of co-operative scholarship between Muslims and Christians. Anyone who wishes to learn about a thoroughly orthodox, tolerant and eirenic Islam, as expressed by the early twentieth-century Turkish writer, Said Nursi, should read this book.'   Professor Keith Ward, Christ Church, Oxford, UK   'It can no longer be said that 'east is east and west is west and never the twain shall meet.'  The world of Islam has penetrated the western world in ways that cannot be ignored. Inter-religious dialogue is essential and this book will do much to facilitate that dialogue.  It is a brilliant read.'  Dr Tony Compolo, Founder and President of the Evangelical Association for the Promotion of Education, USA  'This is a welcome book: there are very few works on Said Nursi. It is obviously of great relevance in the post 9/11 period and will provide fascinating reading for scholars, academics and those interested in Islam, Turkey and in other fields of social science.' Professor Lloyd Ridgeon, University of Glasgow, UK  '... this book is never less than fascinating.' Heythrop Journal
