"The clear and systematic writing style and many concrete examples from language education research make this book an excellent entry point to quantitative research for even those who might be afraid of statistics. Its coverage of non-parametric statistics is particularly useful."
Ari Huhta, University of Jyväskylä, Finland

"This book helps readers to understand basic statistical logics and principles, and to analyze and interpret their data using, the freeware statistical program R, available online. It is suitable for language teachers who may not be satisfied with statistical resources that have many intimidating numbers and formulas but without relevant language learning and teaching contexts" 
Sun-Young Shin, Indiana University, Bloomington, USA
The strength of Turner’s book is that it never loses sight of the targetaudience: language teachers or novice researchers who want to conduct research in their individual contexts with nonrandom and small or unequal samples sizes, which are likely to require the application of nonparametric statistical procedures. In addition, those without access to expensive software like SPSS or with limited knowledge of how to get started using the free software R will find this book an invaluable addition to their personal library."

"I am most impressed by the range and profile of the topics and contributors. There is a growing awareness that solving water and sanitation problems involves more than pipes and valves - human behaviour and institutions are important components of the package." -Sandy Cairncross, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK 
"This book will be very timely...The emphasis of the book is absolutely correct, linking the technologies to the sociocultural, political, economic and planning aspects of water and sanitation services." -Duncan Mara, University of Leeds, UK 
"The book will be of great interest to advanced students, researchers, professionals, and NGOs in many disciplines, including public policy and planning, environmental science, environmental sociology, history of technology, civil and environmental engineering public health, and development studies." - Richard H. McCuen, Professor of Civil Engineering, University of Maryland, USA 
"By delving into the book more deeply, the reader is provided with a rich and deep source of information, analysis and advice for all who are committed to improving access to and the quality of water and sanitation services." - David Sutherland, ATKINS, Waterlines 
"Jose´ Esteban Castro and Le´o Heller’s Water and Sanitation Services: Public Policy and Management is a valuable collection of case studies and theoretical discussions that extract key principles from this complex and hotly debated field ... Packed with accessible, current and historical examples from both developing and developed countries, the book effectively achieves its objective to “provide support for policy design and planning in the interfaces between WSS [water and sanitation services] and other interlinked areas of activity such as public health and water resources management” (p. 4)." – Ilana Cohen, International Journal of Water Resources Development

'This is astate-of-the-art overview ofthe debate about scientific realism, a perfect guide for both scholars and graduate students in metaphysics and philosophy of science.'
Michael Esfeld, University of Lausanne, Switzerland
"The Routledge Handbook of Scientific Realismis indeed and truly an insightful and understandable state-of-the-art presentation of its subject. Though presumably you will be not converted into a realist after reading the whole handbook, it will be harder to resist realist reasoning without further ado. Really recommended."Adam Tamas Tuboly, Institute of Philosophy, Hungarian Academy of Sciences

"This elegantly conceived and meticulously executed collection scores a palpable double hit: deepening our understanding of financial crises and transforming our knowledge of financial journalism. Above all it marks a historiographical step-change through its sophisticated reading across the last two centuries of that elusive but symbiotic relationship between the ‘actors’ (whether individuals or markets) and their interpreters in the media. To anyone seriously interested in financial matters, this is a mandatory text."
David Kynaston, professional historian and author of The Financial Times: A Centenary History
"This is a cogent and multidimensional examination of business and financial reporting during times of economic crises and commercial fiascos. It provides insightful and integrated analysis of the roles, quandaries and performance of media during economic shocks across the past two centuries and is a compelling appraisal of how media cover and influence economic, financial, and commercial activities and public responses." 
Robert G. Picard, Reuters Institute, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Oxford

"The media and the financial sectors are both criticised for being over-powerful and lacking public accountability. This collection of essays - from some of the most knowledgeable academics with experience of both fields - tackles that issue head-on and is essential reading for anyone interested in the role and effectiveness of business journalism."
Richard Sambrook, Professor of Journalism and Director of the Centre for Journalism, Cardiff University

"The book Innovative Earthquake Soil Dynamics is very appropriately titled and reflects the unique background and extensive expertise of the author, Dr. Takaji Kokusho, Emeritus Professor, Chuo University, Tokyo, Japan. The book is composed of six chapters that can be grouped into four categories: background material (Chapters 1-3), site amplification and dynamic soil-structure-interaction (Chapter 4), liquefaction and related phenomena (Chapter 5), and earthquake-induced slope failure (Chapter 6). The background material presented in Chapters 1-3 gives an in depth coverage of elastic wave propagation in soil, dynamic soil properties, and soil modeling and sets the stage for the topics covered in the latter chapters.
Innovative Earthquake Soil Dynamics is unique from other books on geotechnical aspects of earthquake engineering in that it includes a detailed coverage of soil dynamics, as related to earthquake engineering, in addition to the oft-presented empirical relationships. The book is innovative in that it presents the material from both "traditional" (e.g., stress-, strain-, and force-based perspectives) and "energy" perspectives, with the latter largely derived from the author’s own extensive research. The author shows that energy is central to site amplification and dynamic soil-structure-interaction and can be used as a simple index for evaluating liquefaction and related phenomena and earthquake-induced slope failures. 
Another unique aspect of Innovative Earthquake Soil Dynamics stems from the author having received his higher education in both the United States (Duke University) and Japan (University of Tokyo), and having spent the first half of his career working for the electric power industry in Japan and the second half of his career as a professor at Chuo University. As a result, the material presented in the book reflects research and engineering procedures from both Japan and the United States, as well as other countries, and all the material presented builds to applications in engineering practice. The book is equally suited to serve as a text for graduate courses in geotechnical aspects of earthquake engineering and soil dynamics or as a reference book for practicing engineers."
Russell A. Green, Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia, USA.

‘The biosocial revolution has broken through the gates of resistance erected by traditional criminology, offering rich opportunities for transforming the criminological enterprise. For those wishing to join this revolution - or simply to understand it - DeLisi and Vaughn's Handbook is an indispensable resource. The breadth and depth of this volume are impressive; it is a work that should be kept close at hand and consulted regularly.’ - Francis T. Cullen, Distinguished Research Professor, University of Cincinnati, USA

‘Biosocial criminology has expanded by leaps and bounds since its origins and the field continues to evolve. Fortunately for criminologists of all stripes, DeLisi and Vaughn have amassed a who's-who of internationally-acclaimed scholars who are at the forefront of biosocial criminology. The key topics are covered and reviewed well, but more importantly the chapters are filled with nuggets for future theoretical and empirical research that is sure to serve as a model guide for students and academics alike. The editors are to be commended for spearheading a must-have volume that should be on every shelf.’ - Alex R. Piquero, PhD, Ashbel Smith Professor of Criminology, The University of Texas at Dallas, USA

‘This comprehensive Handbook clearly brings out the increasing importance of biosocial research for criminology and criminal justice. Written by leading biosocial scholars, it is very wide-ranging, including not only fundamental research, but also implications for policy and practice. It should be required reading for all criminologists.’ - David P. Farrington, Emeritus Professor of Psychological Criminology, Cambridge University, UK
'The rise of biosocial criminology represents the most important paradigm shift criminology has ever experienced. DeLisi and Vaughn’s book fully captures the scholarly diversity and intellectual excitement that accompany and propel this transition. Readers of DeLisi and Vaughn’s book will not only come away better informed about biosocial criminology, they will come away inspired.’ - John Wright, Professor of Criminal Justice, University of Cincinnati and King Abdullhziz University, Jeddah Saudi Arabia

Fostering Imagination in Higher Education provides a unique account of how university educators foster the imagination, especially in disciplines not typically associated with imaginative thinking. Whitton skilfully integrates Paul Ricoeur’s theory of imagination with a wide range of other literature on the imagination, creativity, and learning. Using this robust theoretical framework, she details three ethnographic studies: a fourth year physics course; a first year history course; and a post-graduate finance course. In doing so, Whitton provides many diverse examples of imaginative teaching practice — practices that can easily be applied in most higher education contexts.  Dr. Jennifer Bleazby, Monash University, AustraliaIf there has ever been a time when we need to encourage students and teachers to use their imaginations, it is now. This is a ‘must read’ book for any teacher who wants to improve their understanding of imagination in learning. It makes a significant contribution to understanding the nature of creativity in higher education teaching and learning and other practices.The ethnographic case studies reveal the significance of imagination, productively connected to perception and reasoning, in the cognitive apprenticeships of learners: the important point being that while they learn how to use their imaginations like practitioners in the disciplinary field, they bring their own unique selves and history to what they imagine.The imaginative way in which theory, practice and research have been connected and blended into a new synthesis, will stimulate any teacher’s imagination to develop new practices to encourage learners to use their own imaginations.Professor Norman Jackson, Emeritus Professor University of SurreyThis beautifully written book is both scholarly and practical and a compelling read.

'This groundbreaking ethnographic study examines, in a graphic and critical manner, the lived experiences of Westerners who teach English in China. It sheds light on the tensions, contradictions, misunderstandings, and identity construction in cross-cultural encounters with complexity and texture.' -- Hu Guangwei, Associate Professor, National Institute of Education, Singapore
'It's an outstanding work on a number of levels. It's a page-turner, an epic, the War and Peace of ELT in only 250-odd pages. It's mini-series material. I don't think I've ever read an academic work related to ELT as comprehensive in its effect. ... It's littered with leads for further research. In the final chapter, I imagined going to China and working at different schools, trying to find Leo so I could see what he was actually like in person! Anyone who questions the relevance of serious academic work and/or ethnography should read it. ... It's tempting to go back and start it again immediately now that I know what happens in the end! Like a good book, film, TV series, I feel like I know the characters, and I want to keep following their lives.' -- Kyle Smith, Director of Studies, Browns English Language School, Brisbane
