The Medallic History of the United States of America, 1776-1876

'This is an outstanding book, and an exceptionally worthwhile contribution to the growing literature on cosmopolitanism. It brings together some of the leading contributors to recent debates and offers a valuable critical perspective on claims for European 'exceptionalism' in relation to cosmopolitanism.' - William Outhwaite, Professor of Sociology, Newcastle University, UK

'This volumes makes a much needed contribution to the growing literature on cosmopolitanism in the social sciences. The chapters offer a careful critical assessment of the limits and relevance of the idea of a European cosmopolitanism'. - Gerard Delanty, Professor of Sociology, University of Sussex, UK

'Robertson and Krossa have put together valuable critiques of the very current but fuzzy notion of European cosmopolitanism. They see cosmopolitanism as an ambiguous, ahistorical, and internally inconsistent normative ideal. And they see the idea that it is especially European as provincial rather than analytically useful.' - John W. Meyer, Professor of Sociology, Emeritus, Stanford University, USA

'A major international contribution to an empirical and analytic interpretation of the global cosmopolis' - Bryan S Tuner, Presidential Professor of Sociology, The City University of New York, USA

'Considering cosmopolitanism as a response to globalization, the volume offers challenging analyses of current trends. European Cosmopolitanism in Question comprises brilliant contributions by leading authors that constitutes both a lucid introduction and an original and challenging advancement to the debate.' - Frank Welz, Innsbruck University, Austria

'Penetrating analyses, deep thinking, intrepid critiques Robertson and Krossa have assembled an outstanding collection of essays on a key concept in contemporary social theory. This book offers a much-needed reconfiguration and broadening of the cosmopolitanism debate.' - John Boli, Professor of Sociology, Emory University, USA

"This collection of autobiographical essays by prominent North American rural sociologists should be required reading for sociology students contemplating a career studying rural areas. It will also appeal to established sociologists interested in the historical development of rural sociology as a discipline. Some essays are personal stories about how the authors became involved in the field, but many chart the intellectual development that led rural sociology to break away politically from "mainstream" sociology. The essays cover a wide range of theoretical, empirical, and political issues. In style and substance, this work follows Phillip Hammond's Sociologists at Work (CH, Jan'65) and Matilda White Riley's Sociological Lives (1988). All rural sociologists will be familiar with most or all of these contributors and will appreciate the candor of the essays. Each chapter includes notes and a bibliography. The book will remind readers that all faculty enter their disciplines at a particular point in time, and these stories provide a perspective, both personal and historical, that often is left out of their training. Summing Up: Essential. Upper-division undergraduates and above."--A. A. Hickey, Western Carolina University, in CHOICE

It is a rare pleasureto come across a psychoanalytic book as rich and as stimulating as this one... such is the clinical detail and imaginative scope of Antonino Ferro's In The Analyst's Consulting Room that it leaves one feeling a more potentially competent analyst for having read it. - Gail S.

'With Kantian elegance, Malmkjær’s clever and beautiful argument brings into thought the aesthetic pleasures that we translators feel but that are commonly not supposed to exist. She identifies an unsung creativity that respects the translation form and can be found in our everyday work.' 
Anthony Pym, University of Melbourne, Australia
　
'Kirsten Malmkjær can always be relied on to produce interesting, innovative and thought-provoking writing. The current volume is no exception: engaging, informed and insightful. I highly recommend it to readers.'
Mark Shuttleworth, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong

'If you ever thought translation involved re-creation rather than creation, you will have to rethink after reading Malmkjær’s fine book. She tests translation against all the known criteria of creativity and finds that translation meets them all and is a supremely creative activity.'
Arnt Lykke Jakobsen, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark

'The balance of [this] study is about right, and the resulting assessment is generous, scholarly and readable: a valuable contribution to understanding mid-twentieth century Anglicanism.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History  '[This book is] immensely readable and should make Fisher’s important life and legacy accessible to a wider audience than Carpenter’s book ever will in the modern era. If the books which follow it in Ashgate’s Archbishops of Canterbury Series are as skilfully composed as this, then the series will ultimately prove to be of great value to scholars and a more general readership alike.'  New Directions  'David Hein is an American historian who published an excellent monograph on Fisher five years ago. Now he has teamed up with Andrew Chandler, whose book on the Church Commissioners is an indispensable work for anyone who wants to understand the history of the Church of England in the second half of the 20th century, to produce an extended version of his original monograph. In addition to their text of 156 pages, the authors also include speeches and documents written by Fisher and the record from Hansard of his masterly intervention in the House of Lords debate on Suez.'  Church of England Newspaper  'May God have mercy on the next Archbishop of Canterbury, I say, since the office he will hold has certainly not become any more straightforward. This good book might be a helpful read for him.' Church Times  ’The balance of the study is about right, and the resulting assessment is generous, scholarly and readable; a valuable contribution to the understanding of mid-twentieth century Anglicanism.’  Ecclesiastical History  ’Engagingly written and well-informed, its core chapters provide one of the best summaries of Fisher’s archiepiscopate currently available.’  Journal of Church and State  ’...an engaging book...’ Modern Believing
