Many scholars have contributed to ongoing debates about the competition between the dollar and the euro for global monetary dominance. Few have added as much value as Miguel Otero-Iglesias with his systematic and original survey of the views of financial elites in major emerging market economies. Where conventional interpretations emphasize material "reality," Otero-Iglesias's ideational analysis clearly demonstrates how important it is to consider as well how "reality" is perceived and framed by key actors. The euro may be structurally weak, limiting its "hard" power. But at the cognitive level of "soft" power, Otero-Iglesias suggests, Europe's money poses a significant challenge to America's greenback. This is an argument to be taken seriously.

Benjamin J. Cohen, Louis G. Lancaster Professor of International Political Economy University of California, Santa Barbara, USA.

This is a book I’ve been waiting for: a detailed analysis of what financial elites in the large reserve-holding countries are thinking about the future of the international monetary system. Drawing on extensive research, Miguel Otero-Iglesias argues persuasively that the views of authorities in China, Brazil, and the Gulf states matter enormously for the future of the global roles of dollar and the euro. An engaging and innovative book that makes a major contribution to our understanding of the world’s money." 

Eric Helleiner, Faculty of Arts Chair in International Political Economy and Professor in the Department of Political Science of the University of Waterloo
In this original, well written and carefully researched book, Otero-Iglesias suspends motion in this fast moving story of currency rivalry to give the reader a view into the deeper logic of global monetary change. The author has synthesized skilfully across a wide spectrum of perspectives, from various systemically important emerging countries, and for which he has accessed key financial elites, and policy shapers, in China and Brazil, as well as the Gulf States.　 This book is truly a must read for scholars of the politics of the international monetary system, especially those with an eye to systemic change.

&ldquo;Crisp execution of projects is critical to the survival of today&rsquo;s organizations. This practical book is filled with ideas and examples that will teach you how to build project management competence in your organization.&rdquo; &mdash;Lewis E. Platt, former Chairman, President, and CEO, Hewlett-Packard Company &ldquo;Creating an Environment for Successful Projects is an outstanding resource for any organization, team, or individual responsible for delivering projects effectively. We have used the authors&rsquo; experiences and knowledge to workshop the needs in our organization and continue to develop tactics to further enhance our project management practices. This book will remain on my shelf as a reference for our future.&rdquo; &mdash;James A. Lee, PE, LEED AP, President, Shive-Hattery &ldquo;The first edition was so valued that it was stolen from my NASA office after I told others that it was one of the finest project leadership books around. Glad to see that the third edition is coming out.&rdquo; &mdash;Edward J. Hoffman, PhD, former Chief Knowledge Officer, NASA; CEO, Knowledge Strategies; Strategic Advisor, PMI; and Senior Lecturer, Columbia University School of Professional Studies &ldquo;Creating an Environment for Successful Projects became our bible for program leadership during PMO startup and continues to be a fundamental part of our thinking as we work to attain recognition as a truly project-based organization.&rdquo; &mdash;Colonel Gary LaGassey, former Project Office Program Manager, Aviano Air Base, Italy &ldquo;The book is rich with examples of why typical management behavior interferes with new product development. It clearly explains why upper managers are fearful, why corporate communications are so often poor, and yes, how to fix such things. The goal is to give project managers the freedom, training, and support to run rather autonomous and effective new product development programs.&rdquo; &mdash;John D.

"An indispensable contribution to the study of the contemporary Russian Orthodox Church, this book presents a very nuanced treatment of the role of the Church in Russian politics and society, revealing the multi-layered responses both within the Church itself and in society towards the Church."
Scott Kenworthy, Miami University, Ohio, USA

"Western commentators have become increasingly aware of the importance of the Orthodox Church in shaping contemporary Russian identity, but this is often seen in overly simplistic terms. Based on a solid grasp of post-Soviet developments, Hanna Stähle’s exciting new study uses the evidence of social media to reveal a much more complex and nuanced view. This being Russia, there is much that astonishes, much that disturbs, and much to admire in the many vivid examples she presents. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand what is really going on in relations between Church and society in Russia today."
George Pattinson, University of Glasgow, UK

"Hanna Stähle provides a nuanced and well-argued understanding of contemporary Russian Orthodoxy by analyzing mediatized Church critique ranging from non-believers through religious to secular critics. The book represents a highly significant contribution to the field of media, religion, and culture studies by demonstrating how the theory of mediatization offers new insights for assessing the heightened visibility and political significance of religion in contemporary Russia." 
Mia Lövheim, Uppsala University, Sweden

"This book makes a unique and timely contribution to a number of fields. Using the Russian Orthodox Church as its case study, it shows how in the twenty-first century any social or cultural institution exists not only as its official image but as a multitude of conflicting views and online debates. Very clearly written and argued, this is a wonderful study illuminating how phenomena now exist as digital social media objects."
Lev Manovich, City University of New York, USA

"This book opens up a new and much-needed perspective in the study of the Russian Orthodox Church, analyzing its public presence as extended to the digital realm. It demonstrates with compelling evidence how on the internet the official image of the Church can be contested and revised by multiple religious and non-religious voices."
Ekaterina Grishaeva, Ural Federal University, Russia

Mission: Impossible to Resist (Impossible Mission, #1)

&ldquo;Intrepid traveler, chronicler of Indian Buddhism, consummate scholar, translator extraordinaire, and inspiration for Journey to the West, Xuanzang may be the most famous figure in the history of Buddhism after the Buddha himself. If you don&rsquo;t believe it, read this book, where Benjamin Brose recounts Xuanzang&rsquo;s extraordinary life and offers finely crafted translations from his inspiring works and from works inspired by him.&rdquo;&mdash;Donald S. Lopez Jr., author of Gendun Chopel: Tibet&rsquo;s Modern Visionary&ldquo;[An] excellent addition to the Lives of the Masters Series . . . Brose&rsquo;s smart volume is a compact yet comprehensive introduction to Xuanzang.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&ldquo;Brose&rsquo;s book joins a distinguished lineage of studies about China&rsquo;s most famous pilgrim-monk. However, its nuance and depth of thought give it a strong edge over many introductory books to Xuanzang. This is the strength of the &lsquo;Lives of the Masters&rsquo; series: it re-introduces familiar names in an updated light, allowing us to revisit these great women and men, while being able to enjoy a different conversation with them.&rdquo;&mdash;Buddhistdoor Global
