Reviews

'This book represents a milestone in the changing attitudes to the study of prehistory and constitutes essential reading for all those interested in the Neolithic and how we may speak of the past - Colin Richards 'Clarity of thought, novelty of idea and impressive marshalling of data combine to make this a significant addition to the literature of both the British Neolithic and archaeological theory' - Jonathan Last, Archaeological Review 'Good value for money and time highly topical and very readable in todays archaeological climate.' - Assemblage, University of Sheffield
