It offers new and often intriguing insights into collaborations between artists and writers as well sheds light on lesser-known artists of this genre, thus opening up opportunities for additional new scholarship.' ARLIS 
'This volume makes a valuable contribution to intermedia studies and succeeds in the editor's aim of showing how the art book tradition exploits "the dynamic relations between contrasting media in order to test and expand their own expressive repertoire".' French Studies 
'Le volume ... offre un échantillon varié et stimulant de contributionsàce champ en plein épanouissement. L’intérêt et les mérites de ce volume collectif, dont grâce au travail très soignée de la directrice l’ensemble vaut plus que la somme des articles qui le composent, sont multiples.

'Georgia is not just an awkward little "new" country to the south of the Caucasus. Jonathan Wheatley shows in his masterly analysis that its importance touches the geostrategic situation in the wider world; and he conveys to his readers the complex internal tensions that have produced the swirl of events in Tbilisi.'  Robert Service, St Antony's College, University of Oxford, UK  'Nationalism and democracy have had an uncertain relationship historically - and nowhere more so than in the remnants of the former Soviet Union...In an extraordinarily detailed and comprehensive analysis of this little-known case, Wheatley succeeds in bringing it within the fold of comparative democratization studies, up to and including its recent "Rose Revolution". I recommend this book not only to specialists on post-communism, but also to scholars and students of nationalism and democracy elsewhere.'  Philippe C. Schmitter, European University Institute, Italy  'Jonathan Wheatley...ably tells the story of social and ethinic upheaval that brought down the Communists...This is the best and most complete narrative we have of the turbulent and often confusing events that did anything but lead to a stable democratic state...Conversant with current thinking in political science and sensitive to the nuances and textures of Georgian politics, Wheatley has written an invaluable fuide to that ill-fated country's recent past.'  The Russian Review  '...Wheatley is very knowledgeable about Georgia. He has done detailed research in newspapers, including Georgian ones, interviewed many of th eparticipants, and writes a splended final chapter on the Rose Revolution that is the best analysis we have yet...the book provides an excellent overview of Georgia since independence and fills an importnat gap for students and scholars.' Slavic Review  'There are very few monographs dedicated to post-Soviet Georgia. This work therefore fills an evident gap, even more so because, centred as it is on questions of

’In this book two pioneers of Green Criminology show how the perspective can enrich traditional criminology and make it more relevant to a world in danger. This is an impressive and important work, recommended to anyone with an interest in green issues and the future of criminology or the planet.’ Nigel South, University of Essex, UK  ’Lynch and Stretesky’s call for a revolution in criminology that would redirect the field away from its historic attention to personal crimes and toward the far graver threats posed by blameworthy environmental wrongdoing is a must read for any criminologist who hopes to remain relevant to the future of our planet.’ Raymond J. Michalowski, Northern Arizona University, USA  ’In Exploring Green Criminology, Lynch and Stretesky lay out an ambitious framework and research agenda for the future of green criminology. In this groundbreaking work, they demonstrate how traditional criminology must adapt, if it is to remain relevant in an era of human history that is replete with environmental crime.’ Michael A. Long, Oklahoma State University, USA  'The stated step forward of this book is that it explores the parameters of green criminology, its theory and practice, and why environmental issues ought to become more central to the study of crime, law, and justice. ...  The authors do very well in exposing corporate environmental pollution and weaving their admirable command of the literature into their arguments about the treadmill of crime ...

'This is a useful collection of informative and insightful essays that adds to a growing literature on questions of space and empire. The topic is well conceived, and the editors effectively convey its significance in a clear and often provocative manner in their introduction. Specialists will find much of value here, though, given the specificity of the essays, scholars outside Russian and Soviet studies will be rather less likely to explore its contents.' Europe-Asia Studies  '... Empire De/Centered is a highly informative volume, which makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of how the Russian and Soviet self has been discursively constructed, challenging a common misperception that in the Moscow-dominated political space, imagined communities could only be defined as either an empire or a nation.' Slavic Review  ’A highly engaging collection, Empire De/Centered covers a wide variety of subjects in disciplines ranging from political economy to visual arts. The themes of geographical space, imperial narrative, and national identity hold these diverse essays firmly together. ... this volume will be a valuable and enjoyable read for Slavists as well as for scholars of empire in general.’ Journal of Historical Geography  ’The editors of and contributors to this volume are to be congratulated on producing an excellent book...the contributors provide many insights into Russian history and successfully demonstrate how, with its particular spatial configuration, the Russian imperial experience challenges received wisdom concerning modern empires with their metropolises (the ’mother country’) and overseas colonies, and also concerning the concepts of ’nation’ and ’empire’ themselves.’ SEER
