"The book is coherently and convincingly structured. The introduction sets up the themes for analysis and argues for a broader security agenda – which would include poverty and disease, environmental problems, immigration, energy and resource insecurity, along with more traditional military threats... The book truly provides a sound and detailed account of the EU’s performance as security provider in Europe, and is very insightful in delineating the rationale, as well as the main problems, behind EU’s policy decisions... A welcome contribution to the literature on the EU’s external relations. Empirically rich, plenty of insightful and compelling observations, it is a recommended reading for any student of EU foreign policy." - Nicola Chelotti, UCL, University of Aberdeen; e-International Relations, October 2012.
"An excellent study. Summing Up: Highly recommended. General readers, undergraduate students, graduate students, and research faculty." - R. P. Peters, University of Massachusetts at Boston, CHOICE

'The literature on Iran and US relations is ever growing, which is interesting as the two countries have not had diplomatic relations since 1980! Yet contact between the two has been steady, if not frequent: in Iraq, Afghanistan, in nuclear politics, and also Middle East regional security, the two have both direct and indirect contacts, and have between 2004 and 2007 been involved in structured discussions about a wide range of issues. But in 2008, in the dying days of the Bush presidency, the two countries did concede to meeting publicly to discuss Iran's controversial nuclear programme, which was followed in December 2010 by another meeting in Geneva between Iran and the 5+1 (permanent members of the Security Council + Germany) over Iran's nuclear programme. To better understand these recent happenings, the new book by St.Marie and Naghshpour acts as an invaluable facilitator.' Anoush Ehteshami, Durham University, UK

"Diken (Lancaster U.) and Laustsen (Aarhus U., Denmark) examine social issues in contemporary film, and apply those observations in the context of personal identity, film theory and modern culture. Designed to appeal to students of both sociology and film, this book addresses such topics as social exclusion, gender roles, the abuse of power and psychological bonds in modern society. Films such as Fight Club, Life is Beautiful, City of God, Lord of the Flies and Brazil are discussed in depth." -- Book&nbsp;News Inc., August 2008&nbsp;

"With his new book, "Disrupting Corporate Culture: How Cognitive Science Alters Accepted Beliefs About Culture and Culture Change and Its Impact on Leaders and Change Agents," David White has joined the short list of those truly challenging organizations to be better than they are. The more we learn about neuroscience and how it helps us understand the complexity of humankind, the more some of us have become motivated to evolve and reach new heights of knowledge, feelings, connectedness, and purpose. David’s core contention is that new science also allows us to bring the same possibilities to organizations through truly understanding this heretofore elusive thing called, "culture" to bring about real, as opposed to, skin-deep, feel good, check-the-box change. And, his warning that true, deep change will be necessary to succeed in the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the clarion call all organizations should heed. 

"As with all opportunities for organizations to lift their game through sustained, human-focused hard work rather than offsites and bromides, the real challenge is how many will be up for it. For most, the managerial age has allowed them to pay lip service to culture in one form or another while focusing on finance-driven KPI’s to satisfy shareholders. For those organizations that see mastering their culture as the next frontier, however, White’s book is a must-read, and offers the potential to pull ahead in the race to unleash new possibilities. Truly forward-leaning organizations should get on board quickly."

"This book will challenge the perspective of any leader who thinks culture will automatically be what they want it to be. It will remind you culture is carried every day in the practices of your organization and in the minds and actions of your people and leaders. The cognitive science explains why, and this book leverages that science to help you transform your organization in a practical and meaningful way."

"We inhabit a very complex and rapidly changing world which constantly asks us to innovate, adapt, but doesn’t give us the intellectual and practical tools to do so. Taking seriously what transformation entails is what　David White’s　groundbreaking book is about. In　Disrupting Corporate Culture,　White proposes an entirely new way of looking at how corporate culture is constituted. "Culture", he argues, is fundamentally what governs change, and only those who will be able to use it as a resource will be able to adapt. Using cutting edge scholarship on cognition as well as his own expertise as a leading consultant in the business world, Dr. White　debunks the most pervasive myths about culture and allows us to　understand the multiple layers that structure the way we see "our world," a product of our intimate (embodied) engagement with the objects we manipulate, the spaces we inhabit, and the products we create. We also understand why it is impossible to transform an environment from outside, but only by making visible and recognizing the invisible structures, the "schemas," that make us act the way we do. This book will be of great interest for leaders, managers, or anyone who is not looking for easy and quick answers, but has the curiosity and the courage to rethink how they think and act on the eve of the most challenging industrial revolution to come."

"We’re between worlds, one foot in the past, the other perched on the edge of the new: global pandemics, revolutions in AI, robotics, manufacturing, human-machine interfaces, and communications have—or are in the process of—disrupting how we make things, how we work, what (and how) we buy, the ways we talk (and listen) to one another, the skills and knowledge we need to get by, and even how we feel, desire and love. The pivot point between these two worlds is culture. Culture is at the heart of everything—it "governs" change, makes the possible thinkable, and the impossible a possibility. David White’s Disrupting Corporate Culture begins by dismantling the myths, misunderstandings, fables and fairytales defining our notions of culture, to show his readers what culture looks like through the eyes of a cognitive scientist: a "shared mental operating system" of schemas that guide, delimit, pattern and channel the ways we understand, signify, give meaning to and interact with the world. White’s questions are both big and small; he not only asks us to think about revolutionary transformations in the global economy, but about the day-to-day activities that define organizational cultures locally: how to budget, to allocate resources, to plan, and to define goals. He thus challenges his readers to observe culture in action, on the ground, and in the wild. Culture as it is lived and made, he tells us, is not a uniform and static resource that can be changed by executive fiat, nor is it a reflection of what a company truly cares about, or the stage upon which the well-being of its employees is performed. Rather, White’s Disrupting Corporate Culture disrupts, reveals, and challenges business leaders to move beyond the hackneyed advice and outmoded clichés of organizational theorist and business gurus, to look instead to the dispositions, the logics, the habits and the rituals that structure how organizations actually do the work that they do."
