The study of Art and Culture has been among the fastest growing fields of Sociology in recent years, and this Handbook both provides a timely and valuable overview and a serious intellectual engagement that will be of value to students and researchers alike. - Craig Calhoun, Director of the London School of Economics and Political Science, UK　
"The editors of this book, who have organized its 30 chapters into three sections, have three aims: defend Bourdieu’s approach to cultural sociology; elaborate on a "relational" analysis of the sociology of art and culture; and emphasize that there are both quantitative and qualitative approaches to research on the culture of art...It is difficult to see any continuing argument or "flow of thought" emerging out of these diverse papers; at the same time, this is a strength of the book, in that readers are confronted with debate and hidden disagreements. Much of the book is words about words, which should be useful to students and researchers who work in the essayist style of the authors." - D. Harper, University of Rochester, CHOICE

"This is a superb introduction to a crucial chapter in Jewish history for the uninitiated reader. In this engaging and highly accessible book, David Engel provides a concise, informative and lucid account of the history of the modern Zionist movement and its impact on both Israeli society and Israel's relations with Diaspora Jewry." 
Yael Zerubavel, Professor of Jewish Studies & History at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and author of Recovered Roots: Collective Memory and the Making of Israeli National Tradition . 
"David Engel's book is a masterpiece of brevity and insight, offering a sweeping survey of political Zionism from its 19th century inception, through its practical realization, to its standing in contemporary Israel. The debate on Zionism as the liberation movement for Jews everywhere is greatly enriched by this fascinating study." 
Ronald W. Zweig, Taub Professor of Israel Studies at New York University and author of Britain and Palestine During the Second World War .

"The lost art of listening is found in The Sacred Art of Listening. The work of Kay Lindahl could assist you to find your spiritual path."—Pauline Oliveros, composer/performer and founder of Deep Listening®“This elegantly profound book will help lead us to a more enlightened time when the listening ear, not the penetrating eye, will be our primary symbol of understanding. The Sacred Art of Listening will help us create harmony within ourselves as well as with all around us.”—Brooke Medicine Eagle, author of Buffalo Woman Comes Singing and The Last Ghost Dance“This is a truly beautiful book, and a powerful one—opening us in an effective and practical way to wondrous new depths of human living. So much in so few pages, true wisdom.”—M. Basil Pennington, OCSO, coauthor of Finding Grace at the Center: The Beginning of Centering Prayer“I like the insight that life is too often defined by meetings instead of meeting. We need both at the same time. The Sacred Art of Listening, in its wise and reflective way, tells us how. Read, ponder and inwardly digest it.”—Malcolm Boyd, poet/writer-in-residence, Cathedral Center of St. Paul, Los Angeles“The Sacred Art of Listening unlocks multiple doors of separation and allows the reader to enter into realms of authentic and clear relationships.”—Rt. Rev. William E. Swing, Episcopal Bishop, Diocese of California; founder and president of the United Religions Initiative

"What to make of this idiosyncratic picture book from Brazilian author-illustrator Mello? Told by an observant hornet, it&rsquo;s the story of two boys in a coal yard where fiery ovens make charcoal ... The book is filled with haunting enigmas that are as tantalizing as the vaguely expressionist, non-representational illustrations executed in black, white, and shades of grey (there is smoke everywhere) and accented with neon pink and orange (there is also fire everywhere) ... The fascinating mix of words and images invites&mdash;almost demands&mdash;rereading to tease out meaning." &mdash; Booklist starred review"The lives of a hornet and a boy unexpectedly intertwine in this vividly illustrated, unusual glimpse of child labor at a coal yard...An ambiguous ending makes this book truly haunting&mdash;and vital." &ndash;&#160;Kirkus Reviews"The unique and stark illustrations, created in highly textured layers of paint and paper, are gallery-worthy ... This book is a work of art." &mdash; School Library Journal"Haunting... Mello&rsquo;s distinctive work burns with poetic truth." &mdash; Publishers Weekly"Roger Mello&rsquo;s flame oranges and reds, gray washes, ash white, and black foretell a serious story that reflects those hues&mdash;of a child who works in Brazil&rsquo;s coal mines tending an oven that turns wood into charcoal. A poetic but focused wasp follows the young boy and narrates his story, which turns out to be the wasp&rsquo;s story as well&mdash;seemingly insignificant beings on the periphery of more powerful thrusts. Mello has crafted a story that invites children (and their adult friends) to participate in the narration itself, by filling in gaps the wasp has left for them." &mdash;Kerri Arsenault, Orion reviews editor"The striking illustrations paired with the lyrical text create a real gem. The perspective of the book is unique in that it is narrated by a small hornet living in a charcoal mine and following a boy around making observations. The hornet&rsquo;s focus on finding food for her egg pairs well with the boy trying to survive life working and hiding in a charcoal mine ...&#160;The entire story is great, but the illustrations really make it shine!" &mdash;&#160;Sarah Bickel,&#160;Greenlodge Elementary School, in&#160;Youth Services Book Review "It is the spaces between these snapshots of narration by the hornet, the deliberate holes left open to interpretation, imagination, and invention, that leave the reader questioning long after the reading is done. Charcoal Boys has a depth that would be a delight to unpack." &mdash;&#160;Glass of Wine, Glass of Milk (blog)Praise for Roger Mello's You Can't Be Too Careful! (Elsewhere Editions, 2017):ALA Batchelder Honor Award 2018Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Books of 2017USBBY Outstanding International Books List2018 ALSC Notable Children's Book"A marvel of art, story, and imagination."--Laura Farmer,&#160;The Gazette "Elegant linework mixes with torn paper and soft, textured colors as a parade of luminous, exotic caricatures and their accoutrements unfold against a white backdrop; the effect is magical. The interactions probe issues around wealth, possession, and compassion...Complex and provocative."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Through wordplay, dreamlike images, and a playful lightness of touch, You Can't Be Too Careful! expresses serious questions about the importance of kindness and the dangers of greed."--MPR News Staff"Roger Mello's illustrations challenge and excite the imagination... it's great to see some of his work available in English at last."--Center for Literacy in Primary Education"This is a book for puzzle-lovers... Complex and provocative, it's just right for children who love a challenge."--Bookwitty

An excellent textbook. The content is clearly argued, well-referenced and interesting to read. It is the most accessible yet comprehensive textbook I am aware of on this subject.
