’Alana Barton’s book is an important and scholarly analysis of the role and operation of semi-penal institutions for women, identifying the mechanisms through which they seek to regulate deviant women’s behaviour. Equally important are the insights it offers into how historically women, in turn, have resisted or subverted these disciplinary regimes.’  Professor Gill McIvor, University of Stirling, UK  ’This book makes a major and scholarly contribution to the literature on women and community penalties. Barton’s scrupulous reading of historical records, allied to her sensitive and empathic interviews with contemporary offenders, adds a new and significant dimension to this literature. She not only points to the corrosive role of community penalties in disciplining women probationers but also highlights the strategies of resistance the women developed to subvert the patriarchal discourses underpinning everyday probation practices. It is a book that deserves to be read by the widest possible audience.’  Professor Joe Sim, Liverpool John Moores University, UK   ’...Barton’s book puts places like Vernon Lodge on the criminological map and should stimulate important further research.’  The Howard Journal  '[Barton's] focus is the "semipenal" institution, an important and rather overlooked institution where social control is perhaps undocumented...The argument is made original, interesting, and robust through the careful and appropriate selection of quotations from interviews with key workers...and from key documents and archives relating to the running and management of the institution. This is original fieldwork, and there is evidence of painstaking and systematic analysis of documentary materials and interview data...this book has much to commend it...' Criminal Justice Review

Spanning four decades, these interviews with Michael Halliday provide a delightfully readable yet deeply thought-provoking exploration of the fundamental insights and continuity of stance toward the investigation of language as well as of the remarkable openness and adaptability that characterize Halliday the researcher and his work in systemic functional linguistic theory. Established researchers and those familiar with SFL as well as those who are just beginning to encounter this meaning-oriented theory of language—as was the case for my graduate students—can expect to experience wonderful “aha” moments that will help them understand more deeply the contexts and commitments that have long guided Halliday’s “appliable linguistics” and the humane qualities and generosity of spirit that make it so enormously appealing as a theory of language for our times.

"Studies of the work of Lawrence Durrell abound in the application of literary theory. Seldom do we find a sectoral study which prioritises the writer over the theorist. It is therefore all the more valuable that Rony Alfandary has made a study of Durrell's Alexandria Quartet, employing his professional acumen as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist to unpack Durrell's writing in terms of the unconscious and the uncanny.I am particularly interested to see the attention Alfandary pays to Freud's "Uncanny" - that much misunderstood concept of heimlich/unheimlich which, Alfandary shows us, is profoundly present in Durrell's life and art. What he has to say about Durrell's relation to the heimlich Indian background and the constant recurrence of the uncanny in his work is of great value to us all. So too is what he tells us of the "secret wound" as elaborated by Julia Kristeva. I think it is cognate, but not identical, with what Durrell called the "primal wound" which caused "uprooting despair". It was associated for him with a sense of homelessness and a loss of integration, which gave him, almost from birth, a need to restore wholeness."-from the Foreword by Richard Pine, Durrell Library of Corfu"Rony Alfandary has written a study of The Alexandria Quartet that insinuates itself into the very fiber of the work and, indeed, into Durrell’s internal psychic world, to give us anew a brilliant interpretation of this masterwork sixty years after its original appearance. Durrell’s ability to continue to engage readers of Alfandary’s caliber shows his continuing relevance."-Ian S. MacNiven,author of theauthorized biography of Lawrence Durrell;Editor of The Durrell-Miller Letters, 1935-80

"In the context of one of contemporary Catholicism’s most contentious debates, this work helpfully presents the differing interpretations of Amoris laetitia. At the same time Biliniewicz successfully argues that these interpretations have a correlate with how the documents of Vatican II were received in differing ways. Highly recommended." - Paul Morrissey, President of Campion College, Australia"Sometimes small books, such as this one, are precious. This is not just due to the thoroughly reviewed and carefully presented bibliography concerning theological reactions to Pope Francis’s post-synodal document, Amoris Laetitia (2016). Above all, it is the language in which this book is written—honest and respectful to both sides of the great divide—that characterizes the Catholic Church today. It is about how the author deals with a highly controversial issue for Catholic self-understanding: whether (and possibly, under which conditions) divorced and remarried Catholics could be granted access to sacramental confession and the eucharist. With Amoris Laetitia and the Spirit of Vatican II: The Source of Controversy, Mariusz Biliniewicz demonstrates to a bickering and dis-functional Catholic community that it is possible to talk to each other, try to understand the perspective of the other party, and above all, to listen to each other."- Marcello Neri, Professor of Theology and Catholic Studies of Religion and Politics in European Cultures and Society Studies at the Europe-University of Flensburg, Germany, Reading Religion
