Stephanie McCall takes us on an eye-opening journey through two all-girls schools to show how girls are positioned differently while still understood as subjects of infinite capacity. McCall’s engaging book brilliantly explores how ‘girl power’ rhetoric about girls’ optimistic futures does not account for oppressions, privileges, and the sexism that permeates our culture. Instead of understanding single-sex schools as bastions of female empowerment where girls can freely thrive in a supportive female environment, using rich ethnographic data, McCall deftly shows how girls are produced within curricular knowledges shaping them in profound, demanding, and invisible ways. Far from ‘genderless’, all-girls schools operate through carefully crafted notions of girlhood that are mobilized differently in public and private educational settings. This book is necessary reading for anyone interested in gender and education, particularly as these topics intersect with a culture that promises girls equality and achievement but delivers little more than ‘postfeminist fantasies’.

Many books have been written about single-sex schooling. This one takes the discussion to an especially timely level. Here Stephanie McCall offers a clear-eyed view of all-girls’ schooling across the spectrum of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, and social class that draws on both empirical research and insights from practical experience in coeducational and single-sex institutions. This is a must-read for anyone interested not simply in all-girls’ schools, but in the larger context in which they operate, including current discourses on knowledge, the myth of "having it all", social and economic barriers to success, and what it means to be "female" in a world in which gender fluidity is a reality to be recognized.

As leaders of an all-girls school, we must see every single member of our school community as connected agents of change. Our work is to learn together to do two things: first, recognize the systems and symptoms of paternalism and white supremacy; second, build concrete strategies to replace those systems in tangible ways. Doing this work requires a learning space where we can examine the complexities of identity, we each bring with us, understand the stories we tell ourselves about what girlhood means, and re-envision our roles in shaping and enacting this definition.　Stephanie's passion for this work is rooted deeply in her knowledge of the seriousness of the stakes and of the purpose of theory: to inform and inspire action. Because she rolls up her sleeves and does the work alongside schools, she brings unique perspective and a clear commitment to action throughout this book. This should be a foundational　text not just for all-girls schools, but for all schools.

"CFLRP has shown us a path forward in this era of declining resources and escalating environmental challenges. It was a wholly unique policy experiment that helped us understand changing practice as we cope with increasing complexity in public lands management. The work in this volume captures the lessons learned, and points to the policy and practice implications and theoretical contributions for collaborative environmental governance. Regardless of whether the program continues, understanding the lessons learned and capturing the experience of these projects is an essential component of the ongoing, collective project of fostering collaborative approaches to forest management that can support work across landscapes to manage fire, water, commodity production, and recreation opportunities within and surrounding US public lands." - Laura McCarthy, take from the Foreword

Virtual Orientalism represents an inspiring effort to debunk the myth of Orientalism in American popular media. It offers a close examination of visual and print media products that helped to form the cultural apparatus of hegemonic Orientalization. This enlightening work would be of interest to both scholars of cultural studies, gender and media studies, and religious studies, but also general readers who are interested in how American popular culture interacts with
Asia and Asian influence.

"This book is the second edition of a hugely popular title on multilevel modelling (MLM) using R software. Assuming a basic understanding of how a linear regression model works, if someone is looking for a complete reference on how to fit multilevel models with R, then look no further. Even for those not accustomed to the mathematical details of regression modelling, the provided overview with practical examples and R code should get one up to speed. This book is concise, to the point, and a hands-on, how-to reference on multilevel modelling. Through their clear writing style, the authors have provided answers to all of the essential questions a practitioner might have in fitting a multilevel model. In essence, the book presents straightforward explanations of basic MLM, multilevel generalized linear models, Bayesian multilevel modelling, multivariate multilevel modelling, and how to fit them using R."- Enayet Raheem, ISCB News, July 2020

"This most important book introduces and describes in detail a computerized corpus of English texts representing twentieth-century working-class speech. It is also of great value as an introduction to the ways in which spoken English of earlier centuries can be approached and analyzed, and how the comparison between written and spoken language can help us to understand the long history of English."
Matti Rissanen, University of Helsinki, Finland
"[…] the author's enthusiasm for his material is infectious […] this is a highly readable, pioneering voyage into the spoken vernacular of the period 1852 to 1940, a demonstration of what is methodically possible, and a celebration of uniquely rich collections of language material."

Jonathan Culpeper, Journal of Historical Sociolinguistics 2018; 4(2): 281–284
"[Thisbook] is well-written, well-organized, and the observations and analyses are presented with clarity and conciseness."
