A Tale of Stars and Fireflies

“In this well-researched examination of animal selfhood, Thomas … explores the designation of ‘self’ as reserved for humans only. She identifies agency, self-awareness, and autonomy as the grounds for ownership of direct moral obligation, and she points out that some animals possess some of these characteristics. … Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” (M. A. Betz, Choice, Vol. 54 (10), June, 2017)

Animal Ethics and the Autonomous Animal Self

"This edited collection offers a tantalizing look at the future directions that criminological analysis, politics and practice could take in the wake of the crisis in neoliberal and free-market hegemony [...] It is a landmark text which is essential reading for scholars of
Criminology, Sociology, Social Geography and Policy studies, and would be a suitable [...] book for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on contemporary or critical issues in Criminology."

Goodwin is a fabulous writer. She reels the reader in surprisingly  quickly and her style involves lots of twists and turns that are in no  way predictable.

“Learning to Lead in the Academic Medical Center is enjoyable to read, particularly given the large number of case vignettes and descriptions of Dr. Houpt’s personal experiences as both a chair and a dean. In addition, the entire last section of the book contains cases for discussion, each followed by questions meant to illicit discourse. … Learning to Lead in the Academic Medical Center is full of valuable pearls for almost all academic physicians.” (Mary Morreale, Academic Psychiatry, Vol. 41, 2017)“Those serving in senior academic leadership roles in AMCs, those who aspire to be a dean of a medical school, deans at varying stages of their dean maturation, consultants who interface with AMCs, and operational leaders who enter AMCs from business sector leadership positions may find this volume particularly helpful in creating a framework to think through the situations that are not predictable but will definitely surface during their service tenure.” (Patrick O. Smith, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 61 (17), April, 2016)

From the reviews:“Profiles in Operations Research: Pioneers and Innovators, a volume that should be sitting on every operations researcher’s bookshelf, well dog-eared from having been read and reread, is such a book. … beyond reading Profiles in Operations Research for personal pleasure, this book should be standard reading and discussion material in the first doctoral seminar for our graduate students. … So, obtain your copy of this book. It will be well worth your investment.” (Paul Gray, Interfaces, Vol. 42 (1), January-February, 2012)“This massive volume is a priceless contribution to the history of OR. … will remain a very rich source of information for many years to come. … This book is a significant contribution to the fascinating literature on the history of OR. … Assad and Gass deserve much credit for again offering to the OR community this work on the origins, developments and accomplishments of those who shaped this wonderful applied science called Operations Research.” (Hans W. Ittmann, IFORS Newsletter, Vol. 5 (4), December, 2011)

“This book contains the author’s biography (his racial identity and situation, activities in the anti-Vietnam War, for example) and book reviews of many distinguished economists with whom the author has worked … . For all readers it represents (as indeed it has been for the reviewer) a good opportunity to approach various topics anew through the author’s own perspective and views.” (Toshaiki Hirai, Journal of the History of Economic Thought, Vol. 38 (4), December, 2016)'Like his mentor Joan Robinson, Geoff Harcourt's writings combine personal conviction, a passion for justice, policy relevance and penetrating analysis. Harcourt has a unique voice that is increasingly rare, and hence increasingly valuable. These essays, like all of his writings, are marked by an authoritative command of both contemporary and historical literatures, and engaging writing radiating grace, style and wit. Harcourt continues to be an inspirational figure for those working in the history of economics, who also share a desire to be relevant to contemporary economics, to students of economics and to the world.' - Professor Avi Cohen, York University

Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (J. Decker, Choice, Vol. 53 (10), June, 2016)

"Victorian Medicine and Social Reform: Florence Nightingale Among the Novelistsmakes an important contribution to the study of this famous figure, not only by outlining the literary influences on Nightingale's life and letters, but by emphasizing the shifts in her rhetorical techniques according to her underlying goals for social health and reform." - Social History of Medicine"Victorian Medicine and Social Reform: Florence Nightingale among the Novelists is an original addition to the Nightingale scholarship which sees beyond stereotypical representations of the famous Crimean War heroine. Through looking closely at Nightingale s writings, Penner offers a portrait of the reformist and makes explicit how she addressed health and social problems by recurrently adapting her rhetoric to her reading public." - Miranda

"Penner s new book makes an intriguingly backward historicist move: instead of placing Victorian literature in a social-historical context, Penner shows how Florence Nightingale s mission of social and medical reform reflected what Nightingale had learned from novels. Whether quarrelling with Dickens and Eliot or borrowing rhetorical moves from Gaskell, Nightingale s work talks back to fiction. Seeing Nightingale as a reader of and responder to literature adds a new dimension to our understanding of the history of Victorian medicine and social reform, both in England and the colonies." - Robyn Warhol-Down, Arts and Humanities Distinguished Professor of English, The Ohio State University

"An exemplary set of readings of key Victorian texts by George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, and others, showing how microhistoricist knowledge of local and sometimes arcane debates about psychology and medicine can illuminate what these writers are up to. Penner places her central figure, Florence Nightingale, in the midst of these debates as a policy intellectual, based on hitherto unexamined archival materials, and enables us to see ideological fissures many earlier critics have missed. These fissures, in turn, are shown to structure texts such as Brontë s Villette and Eliot s Middlemarch, in surprising ways." - Lawrence Rothfield, University of Chicago, author of Vital Signs: Medical Realism in Nineteenth-Century Fiction

"Victorian Medicine and Social Reform is at the cutting edge of scholarship reforming traditional views of Nightingale as self-sacrificing ministering angel, rigidly moralistic bureaucrat or reclusive, isolated invalid. Thoroughly informed by the ongoing publication of Nightingale s enormous oeuvre of writings, Penner produces a ground-breaking study of Nightingale s interactions with such well-known reform novelists as George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Charles Dickens, all of whom she knew personally. Rich with new insights into how Nightingale developed rhetorical and narrative strategies based on Victorian novels, Victorian Medicine and Social Reform also shines new light on the novels, particularly Eliot s famous medical novel, Middlemarch." - Mary Wilson Carpenter, Emerita, Queen s University

"Penner gives us a Florence Nightingale we are glad to discover: a savvy social reformer unafraid to use the rhetorical strategies of popular fiction to promote improved health care." - Susan Squier, author of Liminal Lives: Imagining the Human at the Frontiers of Biomedicine
