Chemical Engineering in Medicine and Biology

'... one of those valuable books that both introduces unfamiliar authors and recasts well-known figures in a new light.   It brings together writing from seemingly disparate registers: medical, satirical, philosophical, lyrical, fictional, and alchemical.  One of the book’s surprises is that the hermaphrodite appears so frequently and in so many contexts in early modern France.  ... it makes a very important original contribution to scholarship in early modern French literature and culture.'  Mary B. McKinley, Douglas Huntly Gordon Professor of French, University of Virginia  ’[Kathleen Long] combines a wealth of historical information and textual analysis with a judicious sprinkling of modern theory, all set against a historical backdrop both political and scientific... wide-ranging and engaging study.’ French Studies  ’Readers with a background in gender studies will find this book a rich source of material on early modern theories of sex and gender.  For medical and social historians it offers a fresh approach to well-known and less well-known sources on monstrous births in Renaissance France.’ Medical History  ’Kathleen P. Long's exploration of the hermaphrodite in Europe provides a rich and revealing study of this figure in the early modern period, and presents an interdisciplinary and intertextual approach to gender studies.  Indeed, the broad variety of documents analyzed in this book is impressively extensive: scientific and alchemical treatises, political pamphlets, medical texts, novels and poetry... Long admiringly proves her deep knowledge and understanding of this debate by providing a helpful framework and by offering a significant contribution to gender studies in ways that transcend disciplines and culture.’  Renaissance Quarterly

’...useful reading for understanding the issues in social service delivery in an economy in transition.’ Professor Samuel Wangwe, Executive Director, Economic and Social Research Foundation, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania  ’For long, the provision and financing of social services has been the subject of heated debate.  This volume presents an original analysis of the issue and a series of sensible proposals - with particular references to low-income countries.  Scholars and policy makers dealing with this topic will find it highly stimulating.’ Professor Giovanni Andrea Cornia, Director, World Institute for Development Economics Research, Helsinki, Finland  ’Apart from news items and official reports, few systematic accounts of social policy in the developing world are available.  This book helps to explain recent trends and will be a useful resource to anyone interested in social policy issues in the Global South today.’ Social Development Issues

'Wood's timely intervention into the politics of sustainability is a breath of fresh air in the current rhetoric of fundamentalist clichés. His personal vision for long-term solutions to the pressing need for action, that centuries of opportunism and expediency now present us with, are original and insightful. This book's great virtue is that it is driven by an idealist passion that remains grounded in Wood's reflections on his experience of the 'every day'...Its final call for new categories and ideas, rather than reactive prohibitions, offers one of the few books on sustainability that does not leave the reader in a slough of dispair.' Michael Punt, Editor-In-Chief, Leonardo Reviews. 
'That rare and invaluable commodity, a book that spells out the reality of our current global predicaments but gives room for optimism and a design plan for delivery. As a natural polymath, Professor Wood is one of the only people who could write such a visionary yet practical book.' Professor Martin Woolly, Director of Research, Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, London.

“This is an outstanding contribution to the literature on neo-extractivism and indigenous peoples in Latin America. It raises difficult questions about what the post-neoliberal projects of the Ecuadorian petro-state have meant and will continue to mean for indigenous citizens who are insufficiently recognized, co-opted and reified for their symbolic capital, and engaged in ways that are inefficient, insensitive, and often counter-productive. It is essential reading for anyone concerned with the innumerable and often disguised costs of continuing oil extraction.” (Erin Fitz-Henry, Journal of Iberian and Latin American Research, Vol. 23 (2), 2017)
