"In Leadership in International Relations, Ariel Ilan Roth makes an important contribution to the literature on balance of power by restoring the role of leaders and leadership. Examining Prime Ministers Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain in the 1930s, Roth goes beyond the findings of structural realist theories to account for why Britain did not balance effectively. Roth's account allows the reader to understand how leaders matter in the formulation and the mechanics of the balance of power." - Steven E. Lobell, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Utah

"Roth provides a compelling exploration of the interaction between the balance of power and individual leaders. Leadership in International Relations uses rich historical research from 1930s Britain to offer a nuanced description of how leaders can succeed - and fail - in making their countries more secure." - Daniel Byman, Georgetown School of Foreign Service

"Hydrodynamic lubrication, or the science of fluid film lubrication, is essential in large bearings for stream turbines, in small air-film-lifted magnetic heads for computer storage devices as well, and plays an important role in mechanical engineering. The present book originally published in Japanese details primarily the research work of the author and his coworkers. … the book will prove to be an important reference work for researchers working in this area."

"As the title indicates, the book describes a method of ECG interpretation meant to increase the reader’s accuracy and speed when reviewing ECGs. … It is aimed at anyone wanting to improve proficiency in ECG interpretation. It starts at a very basic level but provides information that would be useful to trainees in medicine and cardiology seeking to hone their skills. … This book provides a method for systematic interpretation of ECG suitable for beginning ECG readers."

“This collection … includes a variety of essays examining religious change across Gaelic Scotland, Gaelic Ireland, Wales and Cornwall in the early modern period. … it is a stimulating starting point and it will no doubt be beneficial to readers with a specific interest in Christianity in the Celtic world, as well as to those with a more general interest in the early modern period.” (Russell Newton, The Innes Review, Vol. 68 (1), May, 2017)“The title of this collection announces a project to understand the processes of enculturation of early modern versions of Christianity across a set of geographical zones described as ‘celtic’. … This might be an avenue for further investigation, aided by cultural anthropologists of a historical or archeological bent.” (Thomas O’Connor, Studia Hibernica, Vol. 41, 2014)

"Dr. Bahramitash's book is skillful, exceptionally intelligent, well-thought through, clear, and graceful. Her commitment to social justice and connecting community level analysis to the larger global context is commendable. Bahramitash meticulously studies the informal economy in Iran and skillfully brings the gender dimension to her analysis. She gives a voice to women who are leaders, care givers, care takers and financial contributors to their families and communities but yet are invisible, un-acknowledged, and under-valued. She combines the unique skills of a sophisticated theoretical thinker with the multi-level techniques of a participant observer and a social scientist." - Elhum Haghighat, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Political Science, Lehman College, City University of New York, USA

"Bahramitash's unique field research among working women in Iran provides invaluable insights into the role of low-income women who work as entrepreneurs in the large informal sector of Tehran and other major cities. The data challenges fundamental stereotypes about women and work in Iran and presumably other Muslim countries." - Eric Hooglund, Professor, Lund University, Sweden; Editor, Middle East Critique

"An impeccable researcher, Bahramitash weaves together theoretical critique and extensive fieldwork to shed light on the little-explored world of women who work in Iran's informal sector. Her analysis of this invisible but powerful economy should be read by development economists, gender researchers, and all who study and care about the millions engaged in informal employment throughout the developing world." - Diana Strassmann, Carolyn and Fred McManis Distinguished Professor in the Practice of Humanities and Director, Program on Poverty, Justice, and Human Capabilities, Rice University, USA; Founding Editor, Feminist Economics

"…Until the welcome publication of Ovidiu Costin’s textbook on the subject, this more modern approach to asymptotic analysis was only accessible via original research papers and a few technical lecture note publications. …the author’s perspective provides some key new insights not found in [traditional] books. …One of the great strengths of this book is its use of many examples to illustrate general theory. … A good first course on the subject of transseries and Borel summation could be designed around these examples. …The author maintains a comprehensive list of corrections organized by page number on the web … In summary, as one of a small number of experts in the subject of transseries and Borel summation, Ovidiu Costin has written a book that will be a fundamental reference to researchers and students interested in going beyond the standard classical methods of asymptotic analysis."—Journal of Approximation Theory, 2010
"This important new book is about asymptotics beyond all orders, i.e., recovering actual solutions from formal expansions. The book goes far beyond the logarithmico-exponentials of Hardy and the Borel–Ritt theory of Wasow by utilizing recent work of Ecalle and Costin, among others. … This unique monograph should stimulate a broad new effort to demystify the use of asymptotic series."—SIAM Review, Volume 51, Issue 3, 2009

&ldquo;Anna Cariad-Barrett has written a profoundly important work for all parents, whether their child is yet to be born or is already alive at any age. Our culture has only weakly supported the most sacred of the rites of passage--birth. Many of our family traditions shared wisdom and positive experiences in raising a child; but many more could only pass down trauma and dysfunction to the next generation. This book is for anyone who wants to transform existing patterns in their own or the collective family and offers practical and spiritual exercises for assistance. Bravo, Anna, the children of the world thank you.&rdquo;

"So much scholarly work on Israel has taken its cue from David Ben-Gurion s ideology of mamlahtiut, which privileges the state as the site of initiative and change. Elisabeth Marteu has performed an important service in bringing together these outstanding pieces of research, which take the contrary point of view: that the vitality of Israel and its path to the future lie in its vibrant social groups. These civil organizations, the volume shows, have mobilized along a broad spectrum, from anarchists to Orthodox settlers, to battle over Israel s identity and its response to the ongoing conflict with the Palestinians in the 21st century." - Joel Migdal, Professor of International Studies, University of Washington

"This volume showcases some of the latest and most interesting research on how a range of sociopolitical forces in Israel have mobilized around issues relating to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Focusing on the Jewish settlers' movement, the struggles of Palestinian citizens of Israel, and Israeli-Jewish peace and anti-occupation movements, the contributors offer empirically rich and theoretically sophisticated analyses that contribute to the development of social movement theory and are required reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the contemporary dynamics and future trajectory of this conflict." - Zachary Lockman, Professor of Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies and History, New York University, author of Contending Visions of the Middle East: the History and Politics of Orientalism

"Israeli politics can be common knowledge for whoever reads newspapers or watches television. Israel s internal divisions, grassroots movements, and organizations, are much less reported in the international media. Whoever wishes to know Israel from within its society and not just through the politics of its leaders must read this collection edited by Elizabeth Marteu. After reading it Israeli society will have a different flavor." - Michael Warschawski, director of the Alternative Information Center in Jerusalem

&ldquo;I have heard many of Frank Joseph&rsquo;s well-researched lectures over the past twenty years, and he has put the same attention to facts and detail into his latest book. By collecting over thirty modern and ancient power places from around the world, Frank demonstrates that the power and wisdom of the ancients is still with us today. This work connects many locations across time and space and uncovers some common threads between them. The adventurous soul would do well to use this book as the start of a &lsquo;bucket list&rsquo; of sacred sites--both ancient and modern--throughout the world.&rdquo;

'In [the book], Blackshaw sets up the 'Inbetweeners', a generation that spans a good deal of the 20th century sitting between an earlier traditional solid working-class and those of the later 'boomer' generation [it] shows us how modern Britain was forged before, during and after the war. The shape of work, industrial relations, post-war political affiliations, and housing tenure are all powerfully influenced by the politics of class. We learn too of the importance of working-class organization and solidarity built across generations.'- Sociology , Volume 48

'Lack of economic analysis has long reduced the intellectual and practical value of research on refugees. This book makes a major contribution to filling that gap. Its rigorous but accessibly presented applications of economic theory and econometrics to forced migration and related policies shed new light on key issues, and will stimulate others to do more research of this type and quality.' - Professor Adrian Wood, Department of Economics, Oxford University, UK

"Students, academics, and, yes, practitioners will find much to admire in the analysis contained in both volumes . . . The two volumes add to a rich qualitative literature on proliferation, while applying rigorous quantitative analysis to proliferation cases. The contributing factors for proliferation are widely acknowledged and include domestic drivers, economic and security concerns, as well as regime and leadership types . . . The two-volume set on Forecasting Nuclear Proliferation in the 21st Century is helpful in many valuable ways. There are sound analytical reasons for concluding that, despite the Iranian and North Korean nuclear programs, the sky is not falling, nor is it likely to fall over the next decade."
