PRAISE FOR TIM LEACH: 

'Roman military adventure at its best. Leach's resurrection of a lost and misunderstood people serving Rome at the edge of the world ranks with the best historical fiction available today' Simon Turney, on The Iron Way. 

'Brilliantly atmospheric, utterly compelling and beautifully written' Caroline Lea, on A Winter War. 

'Tim Leach writes beautifully. This is gorgeous prose, immersing the reader in the trials of this cold, cold place at such a time of brutal crisis. It's lyrical and thoughtful' For Winter Nights. 

'Superb... This is a thoughtful, literary take on a world that is more often depicted in a boy's adventure way. The focus in Leach's book is not on the fighting, but on the strange, inescapable logic that makes the fighting inevitable' The Times, Book of the Year, on Smile of the Wolf. 

'A poetic, absorbing narrative with many of the same qualities as the medieval Icelandic sagas that it echoes and reimagines' Sunday Times, Book of the Year, on Smile of the Wolf. 

'Smile of the Wolf bares its fangs from the first page. Like a medieval tapestry, the storytelling is rich with imagery. Readers will be lured spellbound into this lyrical and evocative Icelandic saga. It deserves huge success'

"This is a book that makes an important contribution to our understanding of dissociation. It should be read by clinicians and researchers who wish forexposure to the complexities of the dissociative mind."
- PsycCRITIQUES
"Howell's excellent and clearly written book covers both aspects of dissociation. Howell makes excellent use of both her emotional sensitivity and her sharp intellect....read it and discover all it has to offer."
- International Journal of Psychoanalysis
"In sum, The Dissociative Mind provides a thorough context for evaluating current dissociation theories. The case descriptions that Howell uses to bring the complex and competing theories to life are true gems. Her book will be of particular interest and benefit to those interested in obtaining an overview of the history of dissociation theory, as well as a description of how dissociation relates to current psychodynamic constructs. As dialogue in the field focuses on the development of integrative models, we anticipate that this book will provide a valued voice that models, drawing on the best the field has to offer to advance dissociation theories."
- Anne P. DePrince, Ph.D., andKristin M. Weinzierl, M.S., University of Denver, taken from Journal of Trauma and Dissociation, 8.1, 2007
"Elizabeth Howell's book, The Dissociative Mind, is a long overdue addition to both the traumatological and psychoanalytic literature....Dr. Howell's clear voice is taking its rightful place amongst the leading clinician/theoreticians of our time. I look forward to her future work, and I highly recommend this book to you as essential reading."
- Richard Chefetz, M.D., International Society for the Study of Dissociation

"...this wonderful, complicated, psychodynamically-based book...lays out the historical foundations and theoretical evolution of psychoanalytic explanations of dissociative adaptations to overwhelming experience, and then proceeds to reformulate them...a very thorough treatment of the many meanings of dissociation. It is an important book. I recommend The Dissociative Mind without reservation." 
- Melvin A. Gravitz, Ph.D., American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis

The Dissociative Mind

"When the Japanese empire ended, it did not necessarily go away. Throughout East Asia, its legacy lingers on. This volume presents fresh and exciting new work, much of it published in English for the first time. It helps us understand how the demise of empire left its mark on the beginning of the Cold War in Asia, and continues to shape political relations in the region to this day."
Prof. Dr. Sebastian Conrad, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany.
"This ambitious volume brings together the latest in Japanese and Western scholarship on the turbulent years following the end of Japan’s empire in East Asia. It examines the uneven physical retreat of the Japanese empire, which disappeared abruptly in some places within days of the surrender and yet persisted much longer in other places. More than that, it grapples with mind-sets, with the changes that were forced by the surrender and those that stubbornly resisted pressure to change. It is a rewarding expedition into geographies of the mind in post-war East Asia."
Professor Robert Cribb, Australian National University.
"a splendid book ... a quintessential work examining with great profundity the complex historical dissolution of the Japanese Empire."
Blake I. Campbell, Independent Researcher.

'Aircrew Security: A Practical Guide is as valuable resource for at least three reasons. First, it is probably the only book on this specific topic and certainly the most up-to-date book on the subject available. Second, the authors are highly qualified to discuss the topic. ... The third reason this book is worth reading is that it identifies a new reality in commercial aviation - the potential of another 9/1l attack has created a new physical and psychological (sic) between the flight deck and passenger cabin. 'The authors have done an excellent job in meeting thier stated purpose for writing this book. It is well organized and well written with a wealth of valuable information.'

'This is the first thoroughgoing critical treatment of Sanaa’s modern preservation history, which skilfully makes sense of the overlapping layers of the city's more recent urban amendments. Lamprakos lucidly shows that the city’s preservation was (and still is) an unresolved process of negotiation between various bodies each with their own interests, concerns, and perspectives on the heritage industry. This subtle investigation, based on first-hand interviews and extensive fieldwork in Yemen, instructs on the past, while also shedding crucial light on preservation directives for the future.’ Nancy Um, Binghamton University, USA ’In this richly documented account of conservation in a living city, Michele Lamprakos portrays a vast array of voices and skills; we encounter local builders, architects, planners, bureaucrats, politicians, and various foreign nationals who have influenced Sanaa’s evolution to its present condition. Building a World Heritage City is a stunning and critically important achievement.’ Michael Herzfeld, Harvard University, USA

'The central theme is clear and persuasive, the focus on northern landscapes fascinating throughout. Conversations with Landscape offers a consistently excellent set of essays which will be welcomed and widely read by anthropologists, cultural geographers, visual and aesthetic theorists, and, in particular, the wide interdisciplinary community of landscape scholars and students.'  John Wylie, University of Exeter, UK  'Collectively the essays of Conversations With Landscape create an innovative landscape of their own, refusing to take landscape and human engagement with it for granted. Indeed, there is much to explore. These are fascinating tales - theoretical, ethnographic, and historical - about the moving landscape. Not only is it forever changing, it touches people in a variety of ways.' GÃ­sli PÃ¡lsson, University of Iceland, Iceland  '... unlike the rich and sometimes overwhelming experience of fieldwork for the archaeologist or anthropologist which becomes reduced, hidden or submerged and at times completely lost in the translation to text and final publication; here people's experiences of Iceland are vividly communicated to us, opening up our own expectations. Rather than being objective and detached, here relational experiences are created between observers and their surroundings. Rather than merely defining the experience, we too are taken on the journey.'  Australian Archaeology  We are deeply indebted to the co-editors, both in the geography department at the University of Iceland, for not only introducing us to this theme with contributions from Nordic (mostly Icelandic) scholars and others interested in circumpolar environments, but also for stimulating the rest of us to explore the subject of conversations in some new lights... I believe that the contents will resonate with members of the several scholarly communities, not just those interested in Nordic landscapes, literature, environmental ethics, human ecology, social theory, and biology but a
