Oprah's Favorite Recipes: A Cookbook

In the Kitchen with Rosie

"Anderson offers a rich blend of political, sociological, and psychological insights into the impact of social interaction on individual political behavior. She blends the field's historic strengths in the study of individuals with the new insights of the discipline's emerging focus on context and interdependence." - Paul E. Johnson, Professor of Political Science and Associate Director, Center for Research Methods and Data Analysis, University of Kansas

"Political scientists frequently discuss the importance of community but rarely do they examine it in a richly theoretical and empirical way. Anderson offers us both by developing a strong theoretical foundation and a highly promising measure of people s sense of community. In this important work that draws on multiple original data sets, Anderson analyzes the nuances behind the effects of sense of community on trust, efficacy, participation, discussion, and political knowledge. Anyone interested in how social forces affect political attitudes and behavior must read this book." - Elizabeth Theiss-Morse, Chair, Department of Political Science, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

"Researchers have not paid nearly enough attention to the role of identifications in political life. I therefore welcome Community Identity and Political Behavior for its careful examination of the political effects of identification with the community. The results presented in the book are strong and advocate for serious consideration of sense of community as a variable in political analysis. As part of a growing wave of research on identity and political life, the book is very timely." - Peter Muhlberger, Director for the Center for Communication Research and Assistant Research Professor at the College of Mass Communications, Texas Tech University

From the reviews:
"The authors and editor wish to present a state-of-the-art book on the understanding, handling, and approach to various tissues types. To this end they have achieved their goals. This is a progressive looking book written by an international group of physicians for sophisticated plastic, hand, and orthopedic surgeons who wish to hone their skills and accelerate their knowledge base concerning the newest techniques and treatments in selected fields of tissue surgery. This is a well crafted, niche book for those interested in specific tissue surgery topics, especially for those surgeons practicing microvascular and transplant surgery." (Jeffrey S Rosenthal, Doody Enterprises, Inc. - COPYRIGHT 2006)
"Tissue surgery is a nice review of different surgical procedures performed on a variety of tissues by experts … . the presentation is clear and you may find very easy answers to your questions. … This book is a reference tool for those who want to understand the new methods and techniques in tissue surgery. … I recommend it for every surgeon dealing with the future of surgery." (J. P. Deleuze, Acta Chirurgica Belgica, Issue 1, 2007)
"We are witnessing major changes in the field of tissue surgery … . The editor is to be congratulated … . Technically, this hardback book is well presented on glossy paper and illustrated with colour photographs and diagrams … . There are up-to-date references … . there is no doubt that this text will be of interest to all those … who are anxious to keep up-to-date in the field of reconstructive surgery." (John Lowry, Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons, Vol. 89, 2007)

"This is a gentle but intensely provocative book which sets out to map the seascape borders of Australia s insular imagination. It has the potential to be part of the redefinition of the meaning of Australia as an island-continent." - Paul James, Director of the Global Cities Institute, RMIT

"In Australia and the Insular Imagination, Perera shows in fascinating detail the determining role of the ideology of the insular on the ways in which Australia has been imagined in contemporary political and cultural discourses.This is cultural studies at its best: historically grounded, theoretically sharp, and always alert to nuance and implication." - Peter Hulme, Professor in Literature, University of Essex

"Perera s book comes as a bolt of lightning to the increasingly stolid, and conservative, world of Australian Studies. Where the conventional approach has been to comment on the ways that the land has been constructed and worked over by colonial settlers, Perera offers a powerful and compelling understanding of the importance of the sea in the Australian imaginary and offers also a basis for critically engaging with recent political practices. While this is a book about Australia, the topics covered, such as race, asylum seekers, (post)coloniality, and identity, are all of importance in other societies descended from the British colonial order - including the United States, Canada, and Britain itself. In common with many of the best cultural studies, and in the strong tradition of Stuart Hall s work, Australia and the Insular Imagination is a politically engaged book. It is a book that will remain relevant for many years to come." - Jon Stratton, Professor of Cultural Studies, Curtin University of Technology

Transactions Of The Literary And Historical Society Of Quebec

'A richly pondered work of mature insight, brilliantly written and easily accessible.'   David Martin, Emeritus Professor, LSE  'This book beautifully distils central themes in reflections on what Christian faith is about, whether you are a Christian or an interested bystander. There is a simplicity and directness which readers cannot but find attractive. This is wonderful theology for people who think theology is not for them; either because it is too technical or because it is barely Christian. Nicholas Lash is always a joy to read.'  Fergus Kerr OP, Blackfriars, Oxford  '...ought to be required reading for any undergraduate embarking on theological studies, and it eloquently challenges those who think that theological understanding is superfluous to the Christian life.  In fewer than a hundred pages, Lash clocks a lifetime of scholarship in a writing style that is accessible and compellingly readable, combining profound insight with good-humoured polemics and wit.'   The Tablet  'Nicholas Lash has a very good claim to being the most influential British theologian of his generation. Though he has retired from his Cambridge chair, he is still producing stimulating work - his latest book, Holiness, Speech and Silence: Reflections on the Question of God, is a typically fresh meditation on themes he has been exploring for more than three decades.'  The Tablet  '... written with characteristic grace and clarity... thoughtful presentations of Christian fundamentals...'  TLS  '...Lash's well-known delightful style, and the constant contact he makes with ordinary experience and with what is going on in the world today, lead one encouragingly on...'  Church Times  'With this book, Lash once again shows himself to be an astute interpreter of contemporary culture and a profound communicator of the Christian faith.' Journal for Cultural and Religious Theory

'A critical, meticulous and coherent account of Raymond Williams's principal ideas and intellectual development, Paul Jones provides a scholarly overview of Williams's immanent emancipatory theory. In charting the growth of Williams's sociology of culture, this volume explores the complex and conflictual relations between sociology, cultural studies and literary theory. The Raymond Williams book for which we have all been waiting.' - Bryan Turner, University of Cambridge, UK

'One of the most important examinations of Williams's work to date. Skilful summary exposition and explanation of Williams's positions(s) are valuably supplemented by a depth of theoretical knowledge that seeks throughout to place Williams's work in a broader context. Exploring as it does interactions and borrowings between sociology, semiology, literary history, Marxist theories, Frankfurt School critical theory and (post)structuralism(s), the book would make a fine contribution to graduate-level courses that address the emergence and complexities of critical-cultural analysis throughout the past 50 years or more.' - James Hamilton, University of Georgia, USA, in Media, Culture and Society
