“Global Enterprise Management, Volume I: New
Perspectives on Challenges and Future Developments should be praised for its
attempt to provide a highly relevant framework for analyzing and addressing
issues related to global enterprise managers. … essays gathered afford the
reader a world-wide perspective that provides unique interpretations,
theoretical considerations, and real-world solutions to global enterprise
management. … a highly recommended companion to existing books that address
globalization from a practitioner, learner, or educator point-of-view.”
(Isabell C. Camillo, Journal of Economic and Social Thought, Vol. 2 (4),
December, 2015)"This well-conceived collection in global enterprise management covers both the hot research topics and problems that managerial professionals may be confronted with. Perceptive observations, theoretical reflections and plausible solutions from international researchers are integrated into these two leading volumes. Some of the latest technological advances like cloud computing are involved in the study of management, which is quite eye-catching." - Jianli Wu, Professor, Dean of International Business College, South China Normal University, China

"This collection of essays highlight issues managers deal with in the global market place. Scholars' cross-disciplinary contributions from over seventeen countries focus on the dynamic challenges of globalization. From strategic tax issues and the confluence of diversity and ethics, to post acquisition strategies, the role of emotional intelligence in global leadership and the concept of virtuality in globally dispersed teams, these edited volumes contribute to the ongoing scientific inquiry and is a welcome addition to current literature." - Martin Dannenmann, Principal/Director, Heidelberg Hotel Management School, Germany

"Managing a global enterprise in a diverse and dynamic environment poses challenges for international managers as they lead their companies through complex and ever-changing global economic, political, legal, technological, and cultural environments. This collection of essays is a useful tool for researchers of international management and practitioners across global industries." - Ilan Alon, Cornell Professor of International Business, Rollins College, USA; Editor-in-Chief, International Journal of Emerging Markets

'This collection deserves attention from anyone interested in the interrogation and enjoyment of the Hollywood Slasher film. Offering staunch, articulate, and passionate arguments for adopting formalist methodologies in the study and appreciation of the Hollywood Slasher genre, these essays make valuable contributions to existing horror film scholarship, extending the discussion beyond socio-ideological and theoretical perspectives.' Valerie Wee, National University of Singapore

'Style and Form in the Hollywood Slasher Film is a welcome addition to critical works on the genre. Wickham Clayton brings together a very focused set of essays exploring the aesthetics and formal structures of the slasher film. The contributors explore a wide range of slasher films, both the typical examples and the unexpected, pushing at the boundaries of the form. This collection will provide interest and raise challenging questions for readers of all levels, shedding new light on formalist approaches to the genre.' Brigid Cherry, Research Fellow in Screen Media, St Mary's University, Twickenham

'With exciting essays on the slasher subgenre from classic to revisionist films, this timely collection offers a rich vein of enquiry and superb range of scholarship on slasher stylistics. Style and Form in the Hollywood Slasher Film opens up the field of slasher studies for a new generation, challenging dominant theories and offering advanced and innovative perspectives.'

“Grounded on theoretical debates and diverse empirical data, the book certainly contributes to the empirical sociology of the European Union. It is not only relevant for those scholars who are researching student migration or mobility, but also for those dealing with issues of the ongoing horizontal Europeanization process. Enriching the theoretical debate on international student migration and social transnationalism, the findings presented in this book will surely stimulate further research on these topics.” (Leandro Aramburu, International Sociology Reviews, Vol. 3 (2), 2017)Translated from Dutch: “The findings are too numerous to summarize. With a lot of attention for detail, in balance with presenting the bigger story, Van Mol shows which factors matter, and above all that these factors should be considered in context. … This is an extensive study of student mobility, very much worth a read. … The fact that this book does not formulate concrete recommendations is not a shortcoming, as it is Van Mol’s explicit aim to deliver a scientific contribution.” (Jeroen Huisman, TH&MA Hoger Onderwijs, 2015)“In providing a distinction between degree mobility (common in international student mobility) and credit mobility (common in European student mobility), Van Mol skilfully unpicks Erasmus students from the umbrella of the international cohort, giving them a distinct identity which has not necessarily been portrayed in other studies.” (Children's Geographies)

Intra-European Student Mobility in International Higher Education Circuits

"Derek Miller offers an original and compelling argument for greater intellectual cross-fertilization among political communication theorists, on the one hand, and international affairs scholars, particularly those working in the constructionist approach, on the other. Not afraid to offer impressively original and unorthodox ideas, Miller takes the reader on an erudite review of great European political philosophers and how they can contribute to a modern understanding of media and political pressure. He has written a thoroughly enjoyable and stimulating book."
 - Steven Livingston, Professor, School of Media and Public Affairs, The George Washington University

'This fascinating book opens up quite new directions in the study of key political processes. Focusing on the alleged influence that the media are supposed to exercise on the political process, Derek Miller brings two novel sets of considerations to bear. Turning to the history of discussions of media influence he brings to light the profundity of discussions of this very issue in the period during which the Western democratic tradition was being forged. Perhaps more importantly he asks the fundamental question: how could the media influence the political process? To answer this question he makes use of one of the most recent developments in social psychology, positioning theory. This is an original and powerful study, and deserves to be very widely read.'
 - Rom Harré, Psychology Department, Georgetown University, Washington DC and Linacre College, Oxford

“By covering the monetary-policy frameworks and implications in three countries, partly with a comparative perspective, this book contributes to the understanding of the changes in monetary policy analysis in the post-GR period. As such, it is of considerable interest to those in the central-banking practice, as well monetary theorists around the world.” (Bilin Neyapti, Journal of Economic Literature, Vol. 55 (1), March, 2017)

'The promise is great: a 'dissonant' reading of Wagner's operas for the 'New' Millennium.This rich and varied account of Wagner as understood at the beginning of the 21st century summarizes and continues those powerful debates that so marked the close of the 20th century: the debate about Wagner and anti-Semitism leads now into an original reading of 'Wagner and disability'; studies examine 'Wagner and performance' from Glenn Gould to contemporary Israel; essays on the opera's structure and its meanings ask difficult questions for our time.A valuable addition to your Wagner library.' - Sander L. Gilman, Emory University

'This collection of essays offers ample evidence that our fascination with Wagner and his works continues unabated across the millennial divide, both in the popular and the scholarly realms.The papers in this collection focus primarily on Wagner's still disturbing anti-Semitism, and on crucial aspects of his formidable compositional technique associative musical themes, harmonic and tonal structure, and formal structure.Both cultural historians and musical scholars will find much of interest here.' - Patrick McCreless, Yale University

'In the area of constitutional reform [New Labour] embarked on a very radical programme. Mark Evans examines the reasons why they did so and the fate of the proposals, many of which were deradicalised as they progressed through the policy making process. As such, this insightful book is essential reading for anyone interested in British politics generally and New Labour specifically.' - Professor David Marsh, Department of Political Science and International Studies, University of Birmingham

'Constitution-Making and the Labour Party is a path-breaking work in several ways. It fills a major gap in the literature on the Labour Party's uneasy historical relationship with the British Constitution and the conservative institutional implications of the latter.' - Philip G. Cerny, Professor of Government, University of Manchester

'This book...provides an historical perspective on the Labour Party and the constitution, a thorough understanding of the role of constitutional reform within the broader New Labour project and an excellent insight into how the constitution should now be studied. The book is impressive in both its scope and its analytical rigour. I thoroughly recommend it.' - Professor David Wilson, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK

'Labour's constitutional reform programme after 1997 initiated the most Comprehensive reshaping of the British constitution for three hundred years. In this wide-ranging study Mark Evans considers why Labour, historically so conservative on the constitution, became the agent of the reforms and assesses their successes and their limitations. This is an essential book for anyone interested in the future of British politics.' - Professor Andrew Gamble, University of Sheffield, UK

Constitution-Making and the Labour Party

“Digital Business Discourse edited by Erika Darics makes a strong case for discourse-focused research in the digitalized business environment. It creates a kaleidoscopic view of the phenomenon of practitioners working – and communicating – in today’s digitalized workplace. And most importantly: it offers inspiring new research directions for scholars as well as insights and ideas for teachers in business, professional, corporate and organizational communication. … it would be best enjoyed in peace and quiet with your mobile turned off. Enjoy!” (Anne Kankaanranta, Iberica, Vol. 33, 2017)“Taking into account both its content and format, the volume would appeal to researchers interested in communication in organisational and professional settings as well as in digital communication more broadly. It would also be a valuable read to students wishing to explore the subject and explore ways of conducting research in digital and social media. The range of theoretical approaches employed in individual chapters offers readers potentially new ways of approaching analysis.” (Dr. Agnieszka Lyons, The Linguist List, linguistlist.org, June, 2016)“This book contains the most comprehensive collection of research about digital business discourse. It is an essential resource for all communication scholars interested in this area of study. With its easily readable and engaging content and style, it can also serve as an appropriate text for many communication courses with a focus on digital communication. … All serious scholars of digital business discourse should find valuable material in this book to guide and position their research.” (Peter W. Cardon, International Journal of Business Communication, Vol. 53 (2), 2016)“This volume provides very insightful information on various new modes of communication in our digital age. It is both reassuring and inspiring. … this volume has played a significant role in taking us into the world of digital business discourse.” (Zuocheng Zhang, ESP Today, Vol. 3 (2), December, 2015)

detailed and insightful case studies. … the book is a must-read for everyone
interested in opening the black box of EU policy-making.” (Johan Eriksson,
