'Easy though it is to despair of the architectural profession, whether from the inside or out, Autotelic Architect gives us reason for hope. It shows how the smart, creative, proactive designer with a grounded sense of global responsibility can make a real contribution to resolving some of the key issues facing human society – and make a living from it.' - Roger Kelly, Architect and former Director, Centre for Alternative Technology, UK
'Autotelic Architect addresses the underlying causes of current challenges in the built environment, including the way architects are taught and the changing roles of the profession. Sumita Sinha’s radical overview is concerned with the business of architecture, providing insight intohow the professioncan betaught and practiced to make it more rewarding in terms of both profitability and societal worth. This bookreveals international and historical perspectives from both sides of architecture’s divides – academia and practice- to demonstrate how architecture and architects can and must survive.' -Dr Mike McEvoy, former Professor of Architecture, University of Brighton, UK
"This overdue book takes a fresh look at the purpose of an architectural education, how architects can use their skills both to satisfy their own business needs and for the wider good. This involves an understanding of what architecture is and what architects do." - Peter Murray, from the Preface to the book
"It is indeed a rapidly changing world for the practice of architecture, with disruptive digital technologies, new social, economic and political orders and increasing environmental challenges. Sumita Sinha's book Autotelic Architect is a very timely, pertinent and valuable analysis of this changing world and what it means for the practice of architecture and other related professions. A 'must-read' book to survive and thrive in our new futures." - Richard Brindley, Director R Brindley Consult Ltd, UK

"This well-researched and well-written text examines a demographic group that is at the core of Japan's popular culture. Summing Up: Recommended." - Y. Kiuchi, Michigan State University in CHOICE
"While the work incorporates previously published research, the text has solid threads woven throughout the chapters and many recursive arguments that are progressively refined. This is not just a collection of papers and it really shows that much care has been devoted to editing, updating and expanding. This is the work of a scholar at the height of her abilities, who manages to uphold academic accuracy and build a very distinctive critical voice.[…]I would advise anyone already familiar with Kinsella’s work to purchase this book, and for those not familiar with her work, I could not think of a better gateway into her production. This truly constitutes a milestone for future research, and it will be a valuable addition to the reading list of many courses." - Artur Lozano-Méndez, LSE Review of Books
"Schoolgirls, Money and Rebellion provides important contextualization and analysis of the wide range of talk about girls, both concerned and celebratory, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, wherein national (male) anxieties were writ on the body of the schoolgirl. Through its sociological analysis of discourse about schoolgirls, this book is sure to be an important resource for future scholarship on youth trouble and girls in the media at the turn of the millennium." - Jennifer Prough, Valparaiso University, Journal of Japanese Studies

&#8220;Pressfield has done it again. The Afghan Campaign is yet another gripping historical novel . . .

It belongs on your shelf.&#8221;&#8212;T. X. Hammes, Marine Corps Gazette&#8220;Pressfield's scholarly skills are part and parcel of his impressive talent for re-creating the visceral, scalp-carving, lance-in-back horror of ancient battle.&#8221;&#8212;USA Today&#8220;Fasinating . . . As Patrick O'Brien's prose seemed to encapsulate the feel of the Napoleonic-era warship, Pressfield's crisp and eloquent style reconstitutes the ancient battlefield.&#8221;

"After several years as an executive coach specializing in working with healthcare providers, especially physicians in leadership roles, Dr. Hicks has developed a practical and meaningful approach to teaching these leaders how to have effective helping conversations with subordinates and co-workers. Like many professionals, physicians don’t go to school and are not trained for the leadership roles they may suddenly find themselves in. They are taught to quickly diagnose problems and give direct answers and advice. As leaders, they must learn and demonstrate a very different set of skills, including listening, questioning, guiding, and helping others learn to solve their own problems. The "Four Square Coaching Model" developed by Dr. Hicks is a proven method for learning those skills. I highly recommend this book for any healthcare professional who wants to hone their ability to lead and develop others." 

- William M. Behrendt, PhD, UT Southwestern Medical Center"This book provides real-world application on how to adapt your leadership style to be a more effective coach. The concepts presented on coaching styles provide a sophisticated set of tools to support leading an ever evolving and complex workforce. The chapters provide scenarios to demonstrate how to apply the concepts with the content being relevant beyond the healthcare industry. This book is a "must have" for those wanting to develop or hone their existing coaching skills." 
- Denise Grodé, Vice President, Global Talent Management & Corporate HR, Lennox International 
"Leadership Coaching in Healthcare not only provides practical tools for the healthcare executive but elevates your understanding of the overall importance of coaching as a management imperative. It is particularly insightful for the leader looking to strategically align coaching with increased individual performance. Additionally, the concept of "Elite Professionals" is provocative and will become a part of the recommended readings for my graduate level course offerings."
