'... an economic and elegantly constructed introduction to this text ... a considerable achievement. ... it serves as a useful survey of current research on this most rich and most studied of texts. ... it will prove a useful addition to any university collection on the humanities.' Keith M. C. O'Sullivan, Reference Reviews

Keith M. C. O'Sullivan, Reference Reviews 'Amid the whirl of bicentennial celebrations of the genesis and first publication of Frankenstein, any tempered reappraisal of the myths surrounding Mary Shelley's novel is welcome, and Andrew Smith's Companion performs this function admirably.'
