'A superb book. This is one of the best analytical accounts by an insider of the cultural industries. Actually no: one of the best analytical accounts by ANYONE of the cultural industries.' - David Hesmondhalgh, Professor of Media and Music Industries, Institute of Communications Studies, University of Leeds

'For anyone on the front line of the on-going debates around copyright this hugely insightful book is an essential guide. It is at once a memoir showing how we got here, an atlas showing us where we are, and a lexicon telling us what our words and discourse really mean.' - Richard Mollet, Chief Executive, the Publishers Association, and former Director of Public Affairs, the BPI

'In this important and beautifully written book, an industry insider brings experience and research to bear on understanding corporations in the age of digitization. Wheeldon's understanding is itself cultural, and his lessons have wide application for how we manage and consume cultural products in future.' - Martin Parker, Professor of Culture and Organization, School of Management, University of Leicester

'This philosophical meditation on presence and defense of the delights of enclosure comes closer to the essence of sanctity, to touching, and being touched by, (saintly) bodies than any I have ever read. Bodies at thresholds, emerging through metonymy, from spaces they never leave, and into which they never really fit - -this is theoretical magic - -unique, queer, and, in every sense, touching. Howie questions the possibility of ever really coming out, of ever owning what one touches, of seeing surfaces as invitations rather than barriers. In his hands, prose becomes poetry and academic prose takes flight.' - Bill Burgwinkle, King's College, University of Cambridge

'Claustrophilia is about the relation of enclosure and proximity to scholarship, medieval devotional practices, philosophy, literary history, and love. Howie explores the poetics of permeable contiguities - ancient and modern, subject and object, text and touch - with a powerfully lyrical resonance that performs, even as it advocates, an ethics and erotics of literary critical practice.' - Carla Freccero, UCSC

'Silverstein makes important connections between the contemporary activities of a religious community and deeper notions of political liberalism in the Turkish republic today. His work makes profound claims about political philosophy and intellectual life among contemporary Turkish Muslim scholars ... This original research shatters the typical conceptual divide between Islam and secularism, so common in research on the subject. Instead, we learn of the profound historical foundations of these domains and how intellectuals in Turkey have managed these constructions from the late Ottoman period onward.' - New Perspectives on Turkey

"The book presents an immense array of information about religious structures, practices, and experiences in Turkish society, and as such, it is most recommended as a valuable reference for students of Islam in Turkey." - American Anthropologist

"Brian Silverstein's ambitious Islam and Modernity in Turkey synthesizes recent research on history and social theory to 'diagnose the Turkish present' in order to make sense of the rather peculiar place, compared with other Muslim-majority societies, that Islam occupies in modern Turkish society. . .a brilliant piece of lucid scholarship in its synthetic originality and sophisticated grasp of scholarly concepts that indeed illuminate the topic. It is most recommended for scholars and graduate students of the modern Middle East and in anthropology concerned with the productive place of theory in social analysis and the provocative place of Turkey in today's world." - International Journal of Middle East Studies

“The Meaning of Care mainly discusses the construction of informal care for older people in European countries. … The aim of the book is to demonstrate how discourses of care are interlinked with moral constructions, nostalgia and gendered practices. … I see it as a valuable contribution to any education that involves care. And in an educational context it might even be advantageous that it is reiterative.” (Janicke Andersson, Community, Work & Family, Vol. 19, January, 2016)'This book takes a close look at discourses on informal elder care and break down the dichotomies inherent in the meanings of care. This is an essential reading for those interested in care.' - Minna Zechner, Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences, Finland

"The originality of [Lapp's] argument and the ability to apply it not only to the three main cases but also elsewhere in Latin America and the rest of the world make Lapp's book a must read for anyone interested in the politics of the poor." - Glen Biglaiser, Bowling Green State University

"Professor Lapp provides a most compelling argument, tying together institutional development, democratization, and land reform in Latin America. In addition to Lapp s comprehensive treatment of land reform in Latin America, her theoretical argument holds important implications for democratic theory and the more practical problem Latin America
faces currently in addressing the concerns of its poor." - David S. Brown, Department of Political Science, University of Colorado, Boulder

“Get Real is an extremely timely and valuable collection of essays that highlights the historical trajectories and developing poetics of documentary theatre and performance. It is a must-read text for arts/humanities academics and students, and performance practitioners.” (Kerrie Schaefer, Studies in Theatre & Performance, Vol. 30 (3), November, 2010)'This is a timely book. Following hard on the heels of the 2006 TDR special issue on documentary theatre, and at a time when public and critical interest in documentary theatre has - in the UK at least - never been higher, the editors have produced a collection of essays that sets out (in their words) 'to re-evaluate the historical traditions' of the genre, and 'to examine the remarkable mobilization and proliferation of documentary forms across Western theatre cultures in the past two decades'. In this the book, with very few reservations, succeeds...The standard of writing is uniformly high.' - Anthony Jackson, New Theatre Quarterly

'Academic interest in documentary theatre has been slowly growing and this anthology, the first book-length study of the subject in a decade, offers an overdue and distinctive contribution to disciplinary knowledge...Get Real is an extremely timely and valuable collection of essays that highlights the historical trajectories and developing poetics of documentary theatre and performance. It is a must-read text for arts/humanities academics and students, and performance practitioners.' - Kerrie Schaefer, Studies in Theatre and Performance

'Get Real explores reality-based theatre in two main directions. The first presents a historic overview of the hybrid nature of Western documentary theatre since the 1930s... The second direction points to insightful analysis of a range of current practices, with a specific interest in British verbatim theatre.' - Katia Arfara, Theatre Research International

'Like the documentary plays it analyses, Get Real presents a multiplicity of voices and a diversity of viewpoints...the selection and organisation of these essays indicate an acute eye.' - Caroline Wake, Performance Paradigm

“The monograph under review, written by two leading experts in the field, is an invaluable contribution to the study and dissemination of m.c. C*-algebras. It provides, in a historic perspective, an updated and thorough description of the recent research on this broad class of C*-algebras, highlighting its important connections with topology, logic, and ergodic theory. ... the present book is an excellent addition to the operator algebras literature, covering for the first time the two themes advertised in the title.” (Florin P.

“I was most convinced by Darvay’s explanation of the gothic’s instrumentality for defining Englishness in opposition to a foreign and vestigial Catholicism. This cultural and historical framing permits Haunting Modernity to address the modern and the gothic in a manner that contributes illuminating texture to these aesthetic, cultural, and political ideas.” (Kate Holterhoff, English Literature in Transition 1880-1920, Vol. 61 (1), 2019)
