’Pascal’s knowledge of Brahms and his works is encyclopedic. Anyone reading this monograph will encounter carefully outlined arguments based on the letters of Brahms and his friends and contemporaries, and based as well on detailed analysis of the music. This monograph is highly recommended for libraries serving graduate musicology and theory departments.’ Music Reference Services Quarterly  'The book presents a welcome alternative to the proliferation of studies that conceptualize Brahms’s musical historicism primarily in terms of thematic allusion. Here an innovative topic is combined with careful, detailed analysis to produce an insightful and illuminating interpretation of Brahms’s compositional strategies.' Notes  '... a concise, personal overview of Brahms’s lifework ... It is useful to have all of Pascall’s work on this project in one volume, and one can hope that it will inspire further discussion of the issues raised by this sort of musicological endeavour'.

Controversies in Juvenile Justice and Delinquency

"Soldiers and sailors from the US, Australia, and New Zealand who fought in the South Seas were united by their military service against the Japanese and by their preconceived notion of what they expected to find when they arrived in the war zone. Service personnel were, in a sense, engaged in war tourism; while expecting sandy beaches and hula girls, they usually found a much grimmer world. The authors assert that the gap between expectation and reality often caused cognitive dissonance bordering on psychological trauma. Recommended." - CHOICE

"A fascinating, compelling look inside the Pacific War, with terrific new material on issues of gender and race during that pivotal time." - William H. Chafe, Alice Mary Baldwin Professor of History, Duke University, former president of the Organization of American Historians

"This deeply scholarly, disturbing, and often-hilarious history about the invention of the 'South Seas' is cultural history at its most absorbing. Sean Brawley and Chris Dixon's evocation of Hollywood's surreal portrayal of the war-torn South Pacific and the dangers of the so-called 'Dorothy Lamour Syndrome' is not only packed with jaw-dropping stories, but sheds a light on issues of sexuality, gender, and national identity." - Joanna Bourke, professor, Birkbeck College, University of London

"Based on extensive research and a sure reading of both culture and history, Hollywood's South Seas and the Pacific War analyzes not only the impact of the Second World War on the South Pacific and the interchange between Polynesian peoples and cultures and outsiders - black, white, male, female - but the impact of the war upon the ideal of the South Pacific - the 'South Seas' or the 'Dorothy Lamour syndrome.' 'South Seas fantasies' did not survive wartime South Pacific realities for most, and the book provides an important contribution to our understanding of the cultural interactions of the Second World War, and between combatants and indigenous populations." - Jeffrey Grey, professor, Australian Defence Force Academy

"Basing their judgments on an impressive range of archival collections, novels, films and other sources, Sean Brawley and Chris Dixon have written an engaging contribution to the cultural history of the wider Allied as well as the American military experience of World War II in the Pacific theater. Their study of Hollywood's imagined South Pacific as a tropical paradise, and of the wartime collision of that concept with the region's social realities and cultural complexity, will enrich Pacific as well as military history. It should also appeal to enthusiasts for the popular culture of the South Pacific film genre." - Ian Tyrrell, Scientia Professor of History, University of New South Wales

"Brawley and Dixon ensure that Hollywood's South Seas films will never seem the same again." - Kerry Howe, emeritus professor of Pacific History at Massey University, New Zealand

'... a meaningful contribution to the artist’s oeuvre that provides insight into her creative impact on public environmental art. This work would make a great addition to academic libraries that collect materials related to garden history, earthworks, or Johanson’s work as an artist.' ARLIS/NA Reviews 
'... a welcome and timely addition to the literature of landscape design.' Studio International 
'Xin Wu’s recent study of Johanson explores the artist’s work as negotiating between these multiple fields as well as meriting consideration within art historical chronologies. For Wu, Johanson’s art constitutes a new-and relevant-form of contemporary public art practice.' Journal of American Culture

"Roger Simon's pioneering work is distinguished by profound attention to ethical relations of learning, deep theoretical knowledge, and a demanding theoretical exposition. . . . [The Touch of the Past] is a major contribution to the cultural studies of pedagogy and ethics . . . [it is a] text of great distinction . . . rigorous in its scholarly commitment and profound in its topic." - Deborah P. Britzman, Professor of Education, York University, and author of After-Education: Anna Freud, Melanie Klein and Psychoanalytic Histories of Learning.
