The first edition of this book was the go-to text in the field. The new version augments this status, with updated references and consideration of new trends and arguments that have arisen since the previous printing. The book is immensely readable, and provides cogent arguments and food for thought for both students and established practitioners in the field. - Professor Ian Stuart-Hamilton, University of South Wales, UK
