"Here is a brave, refreshing and hopeful collection of counter-cultural stories which are at once passionate, honest and engaging. Together they map out diverse yet linking pathways, demonstrating that - despite operating within uncomprehending systems - the practice of education can be made both deeply relevant to our lives and actively transformative towards a more whole, sane future where the quality of all relationships is paramount." - Dr Stephen Sterling, Schumacher Reader in Education for Sustainability, Centre for Sustainable Futures, University of Plymouth, UK

"These narratives tell the story of what we transformative educators have taken on - learning in the dark. Story is one of the few forms that can hold the angst of our not knowing while moving our hearts to a deepened understanding. This is a work that gives meaning to the patterns that relate uncertainty to minute, but precious insights - the disorienting path of the transformative educator." - Joanne Gozawa, California Institute of Integral Studies

"An expansive and detailed account of limnology from a tropical viewpoint. Although it draws extensively upon the international literature, and is richly illustrated with examples, it gives special emphasis to tropical conditions. Here both Amazonia and the authors’ distinguished record and enterprises are prominent. It is primarily not a descriptive text, but a generalised classification of examples and a dynamic and functional approach. Issues of applied limnology – especially with reservoirs – are treated extensively, as well as past trends and future prospects in the science. These features, with the combination of length and exceptionally rich illustration, mark a unique contribution to the environmental literature, and especially apt for developing countries." Dr. Jack Talling, Freshwater Biological Association, Cumbria, UK
"This profusely illustrated volume will serve as an indispensable text book for the students of limnology not only in South and Central America but throughout the tropical world. Further, it is an invaluable reference work for researchers and professionals interested in inland waters, lakes and rivers irrespective of their disciplinary specialisation in biology, ecology, environment, geochemistry, geophysics, and water management. I heartily congratulate Prof. Tundisi and his coauthor wife, Prof. Matsumura-Tundisi for their painstaking efforts and valuable contribution to the cause of tropical limnology."—International Journal of Ecology and Environmental Sciences 38 (4): 209-210, 2012

"Middle Eastern Belongings makes important ethnographic contributions to current debates on "belonging"... The theme of violence is juxtaposed with the question of gender without the assumption of a feminist paradigm. In this sense, it follows Saba Mahmood's call for anthropologists of the Middle East and scholars of contemporary Islam to look at how Muslim women (and men) inhabit norms, rather than trying to look for the ways in which they overturn norms." 
- Edith Szanto, University of Toronto, Canada
American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences, 2012. 
"This excellent book portrays multi-dimensional images of belonging and depicts the various ways in which belonging can be manifested by focusing on its worries and thrills in the Middle East. All images observe women in the context of their complex relationship to and in between territory and politics."

'In this truly great book, Anni Greve explores the various sanctuaries in Tokyo, London and New York where we can practice cosmopolitan virtues and cultivate conviviality. Combining sociology, history and architecture, she uncovers how they offer intimacy and spirituality within the secular city. In doing so, she constructs a remarkable vision of a new urban sensibility.' Bryan Turner,City University of New York, USA  'The ability to socialize with strangers with civilty and hospitability is the central concern of this book. The sanctuaries of Japan’s Edo period are seen as central places for the cultivation of this ethic and aesthetic, and their survival or reinvention are crucial to living in our modern urbanized world. From this point of departure, Anni Greve throws fresh and eye-opening light on such issues as architecture, space, temples, markets, theatricality, rituals and performing arts. The author combines her insight into Japanese culture with an admirably broad knowledge of Western and Japanese scholarship.An impressive and thought-provoking contribution to cosmopolitan studies.' Henning Bech, University of Copenhagen, Denmark  'Developing the methodology of urban Sanctuary Research Anni Greve breaks new ground in the field of urban sociology, social theory and Durkheim's social theory in particular. That the quality of life in the contemporary world-cities depends on the quality of urban sanctuaries is an idea full of potential further developments. Greve shows how Emile Durkheim is still a valuable companion on the journey in the global world.' Massimo Rosati, UniversitÃ  degli Studi Roma 'Tor Vergata', Italy  'In Sanctuaries of the City, Professor Greve has created a masterful synthesis of key works in social theory and cultural anthropology in order to unfold the profound essence of Tokyo, Japan, one of the greatest and most livable cities on the planet. She ranges widely to address architecture, social space, religious practice, and the arts, among

Managing Negative Emotions Without Drinking

‘Modern Mizoram tries to meet the following challenge: how does one write the history of a culture when the writing of history contradicts the oral spirit of the culture?

In attempting this formidable task, the authors examine a range of archival materials, i.e., newspapers and other records, without succumbing to a linear historical narrative of how Mizoram became modern according to India’s hegemonic expectations.　The book addresses the problem of how Mizo culture transforms itself under the pressure of the Indian state which oscillates between a developmental ideology and a war machine.

This organic account of the history of Mizo culture is a useful addition of perspectives, methods and strategies of research. It will be of interest to scholars in Mizo political history, aesthetics, development, art and culture.’　
— R. Srivatsan, development theorist, Critical Development Studies, Health and Healthcare Systems, and Public Domain and Outreach Initiatives, Anveshi Research Centre for Women’s Studies, Hyderabad, India, and author of Seva, Saviour and State: Caste Politics, Tribal Welfare and Capitalist Development (2015)
