Inside Job

From the Sierra Maestra to Santa Clara (Cuba: 1956-58)

The Financiers Who Pulled Off the Heist of the Century

Ernesto Che Guevara

Charles Ferguson won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature for his acclaimed film Inside Job, narrated by Matt Damon. A former entrepreneur with a PhD in political science, he lives in New York City and speaks throughout the world.

The never-before published diary Che Guevara kept during the guerrilla war in Cuba when he joined the struggle to overthrow the Batista dictatorship that led to the 1959 revolution. Che’s widow Aleida March has now meticulously transcribed for the first time the small notebooks in which Che recorded his comments on events and individuals, often with a devastatingly brutal frankness. Unpublished for over 50 years, these original dozen notebooks were the source for the articles that comprise Che’s famous Reminiscences of the Cuban Revolutionary War, on which Steven Soderbergh based part one of his epic movie: “Che” starring Benicio Del Toro. This book includes a large number of unpublished photos and a fascinating introduction by Che’s close political collaborator, the veteran Cuban revolutionary Armando Hart. $34.95 Pb, ISBN 9780987077943, NZRP$44.95 Publish June 2012, 300 pages Ocean Press Autobiography Quantity

Charles Ferguson was only able to show 2% of the material he gathered while making his sensational documentary Inside Job. Now, in this must-read ‘sequel’, he delivers the rest. Based on explosive interviews conducted by Ferguson, as well as documents buried in court records and archives, Inside Job the book traces how the financial industry and its enablers went rogue. With clarity, toughness, and stunning freshness, he offers an unrivalled accounting of our political and economic leadership - and what they must do now to ensure our future. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781851689156, NZRP$39.95 Publish June 2012, 288 pages Oneworld Publications Business & Economics/Current Affairs

On the eve of his fortieth birthday, scientist Gary Marcus decided to fulfil a lifeling dream and learn to play the guitar, investigating how humans ‘make’ music and how anyone of any age might master a new skill. In a quest that takes him from Suzuki classes to guitar gods, Marcus discovers the best ways to train your brain and your body. He also brings insight into the question, What counts as a life well lived? A groundbreaking look at the origins and allure of music, Marcus’s journey is also an empowering tale of the mind’s plasticity and the ability to grow throughout life. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781851689323, NZRP$39.95 Publish June 2012, 304 pages Oneworld Publications Popular Science

We often think of scientists as dispassionate and detached, nobly laboring without any expectation of reward. But scientific research is much more complicated and messy than this ideal, and scientists can be torn by jealousy, impelled by a need for recognition, and subject to human vulnerability and fallibility. In Prize Fight, Emeritus Chair at SUNY School of Medicine Morton Meyers pulls back the curtain to reveal the dark side of scientific discovery. From allegations of stolen authorship to fabricated results and elaborate hoaxes, he shows us how too often brilliant minds are reduced to petty jealousies and promising careers cut short by disputes over authorship or fudged data. Prize Fight is a dramatic look at some of the most notable discoveries in science in recent years, from the discovery of insulin, which led to decades of infighting and even violence, to why the 2003 Nobel Prize in Medicine exposed how often scientific objectivity is imperiled. $39.95 Hb, ISBN 9780230338906, NZRP$49.95 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Science 9 780230 338906

This book is a fascinating new look at a littleunderstood but crucial side of Sarah Palin: her Pentecostal roots. Butler shows that Palin’s widely publicized fumbles and verbal gaffes are irrelevant to her committed core of “Christians on steroids,” whose beliefs in miracles, literal readings of the Bible, and apocalyptic patriotism make traditional evangelicals seem almost mainstream. Although the media cannot hear the regular dog whistle of Christian buzzwords Palin uses to rally her base, it’s plainly there. $34.95 Hb, ISBN 9781595587107, NZRP$44.95 Publish June 2012, 240 pages The New Press Politics

What was the first language? What causes foreign accents? Are dialects dying? The book is the work of experts, authoritative and full of facts. It has a conversational style that feels more like a series of fireside chats than a college textbook, because it started life as a series of five-minute radio broadcasts. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781908049490, NZRP$39.95 Publish June 2012, 320 pages Equinox Publishing Quantity Linguistics

Popular culture assures us that couples, friends, family members and even strangers on a train can easily find that sense of deep connection and mutual understanding. Yet in an age of consumption and new media, where “friending” has become a verb, genuine intimacy seems harder to find than ever. Drawing widely on novels and films as well as psychology, sociology, and philosophy, Ziyad Marar offers four lenses through which to view this nebulous concept. He also details the many barriers that impede our hopes, including the illusion of self knowledge, lack of imagination and empathy, the wishful thinking that leads to politeness or the avoidance of healthy conflict. $32.95 Hb, ISBN 9781844655274, NZRP$42.95 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Acumen Publishing Popular Psychology Quantity

But where is the new world we were promised? In Genes, Cells, and Brains, feminist sociologist Hilary Rose and neuroscientist Steven Rose take on the bioscience industry and its claims.

This book brings together nine essays that put the events of 2009 in the context of the Iranian Revolution and the thirty-year experience of the Islamic Republic. Written by experts and scholars, the chapters, on the one hand, shed light on the transformations that Iran has experienced in the different domains in the thirty years under the Islamic Republic, including economics and society, and on the other hand, a number of them speculate on the significance of the developments in 2009. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9780230114692, NZRP$49.95 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Middle East/Politics

Marc Perelman describes sports as both a “recent form of savagery” and “the opium of the people.” Sport is an instrument for racism and the bolstering of repression, with global events such as the Olympics used to legitimize major political crackdowns; doping must be understood as an imperative rather than an aberration of sport. Most ominously, with its location at the very center of the society of the spectacle, globalization, and the liberal-capitalist system, the phenomenon of sport has become a new world power and an immense destructive force. $19.95 Pb, ISBN 9781844678594, NZRP$24.95 Publish June 2012, 128 pages Verso Quantity Cultural Studies/Sport

Stan Cox shows that indoor climate control is colliding with an out-of-control outdoor climate. Air-conditioning alters our bodies’ sensitivity to heat; our rates of infection; and even our sex drive. It has even served as an instrument of torture. Cox argues that by reintroducing traditional cooling methods as well as putting newer technologies into practice-and by moving past industrial definitions of comfort-we can make ourselves comfortable and keep the planet comfortable, too. $24.95 Pb, ISBN 9781595587756, NZRP$32.95 Publish June 2012, 272 pages The New Press Environment Quantity

The Unknown Eastern Front

Transnationalism, the Internet and the Construction of Identity

The Wehrmacht and Hitler’s Foreign Soldiers

Miriyam Aouragh, University of Oxford, UK.

At the beginning of Germany’s war against the Soviet Union, the Wehrmacht deployed 600,000 troops to the Eastern Front. These troops were later joined by a range of foreign volunteers. Many of these volunteers subsequently became involved in the crimes of the Wehrmacht and the SS. Vilified by Hitler for their supposed failure, condemned and forgotten by their homelands for treason and collaboration, their involvement in the war has been ignored or silenced by historians. Rolf-Dieter Muller here offers a fascinating overview of Hitler’s allies on the Eastern Front, as well as of the foreign volunteers who fought alongside the Wehrmacht. $54.95 Hb, ISBN 9781780760728, NZRP$69.95 Publish June 2012, 288 pages I.B.Tauris Publishers Quantity World War II

For Palestine’s diaspora and exiled communities, the internet has become an important medium for the formation of Palestinian national and transnational identity. She closely examines the uses and limits of internet technology under conditions of war, along with the ways in which virtual participation enables the generation of new ideals for political reconciliation and selfdetermination. Through the internet, participants reconstruct a virtual ‘Palestinian homeland’, gain a space for recovering the past, for overcoming issues of mobility, and for generating social change. $54.95 Pb, ISBN 9781780762418, NZRP$69.95 Publish June 2012, 288 pages I.B.Tauris Publishers Quantity Middle East/Politics

A People’s History of London takes us into an unofficial, half-hidden and often undocumented world, a city rarely glimpsed: of pamphleteers, agitators, exiles, demonstrations and riots; the city of Wat Tyler, Marx and Engels, Garibaldi and Gandhi; and the countless pubs, theaters, coffee-houses and meeting-places in which radical ideas have been nurtured and revolutions planned. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781844678556, NZRP$39.95 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Verso Quantity History

Combining cutting-edge research with lively storytelling, Chamovitz explains how a willow tree knows when its neighbours have been commandeered by an army of ravenous beetles to why an avocado ripens when you give it the company of a banana in a bag (it’s the pheromones).

The Courage of Truth

A History of Modern Lebanon

Michel Foucault is a French philosopher; Arnold I. Davidson, University of Chicago, USA; and Graham Burchell.

Second Edition

Foucault's lecture on February to March 1984, under the title The Courage of Truth, was his last at the Collège de France. Foucault’s 1983 lectures investigated the function of ‘truth telling’ in politics in order to establish courage and conviction as ethical conditions for democracy irreducible to the formal rules of consensus. With the Cynics, this manifestation of the truth no longer appears simply as a risky speaking out, but in the very substance of existence. Foucault offers an incisive study of ancient Cynicism as practical philosophy, athleticism of the truth, public provocation, and ascetic sovereignty. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781403986696, NZRP$39.95 Publish June 2012, 384 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity History & Philosophy

The termination of the British Mandate in Palestine was a momentous turning point in Middle Eastern history, marked by the failure of the British to bring about a workable political composition between the Arab and Jewish communities. This book provides a detailed overview of the dispute's historical origins, setting forth, one by one, the perspectives, motivations and objectives of the principal actors in the termination of the Mandate: Great Britain, as the mandatory power; the United States, as the pivot of the Zionist movement; the Soviet Union, preoccupied with the liquidation of the Western empires; and, the Zionists and the Arabs, both the Palestinians and the sovereign Arab states. $34.00 Pb, ISBN 9781848858503, NZRP$43.00 Publish June 2012, 384 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity History & Philosophy

From its origins in the ancient kingdom of Illyria and the Roman province of Illyricum, through Byzantine and Ottoman rule, the granting of Albanian independence in 1912, the rise and fall of Communism to its current fragile democracy, Northern Albania can be seen as a cultural crossroads. $56.00 Hb, ISBN 9781845116101, NZRP$71.00 Publish June 2012, 200 pages I.B.Tauris Publishers Quantity History & Philosophy

Studies of the 1930s have traditionally focused on the politics of appeasement, on British and German foreign policy, or on the British Union of Fascists. Through a study of a large body of neglected literature, this book reveals that a far broader range of responses was made and debated. From remarkably sophisticated philosophical analyses to pro-Nazi apologias, with all shades of opinion in between, the British reading public was presented with a picture of Nazism that was, if anything, more advanced than that put forward by the government and its main supporters in the press. $46.00 Pb, ISBN 9781137022455, NZRP$58.00 Publish June 2012, 288 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity History & Philosophy

In a career of over fifty years, Bourdieu studied a wide range of topics: education, culture, art, politics, economics, literature, law, and philosophy. Throughout these studies, Bourdieu developed a highly specialised series of concepts that he referred to as his “thinking tools”, which were used to uncover the workings of contemporary society. Each chapter deals with an individual concept and is written to be of immediate use to the student with little or no previous knowledge of Bourdieu.

This book provides a new narrative history of the gay and lesbian movement, drawing on primary research in the field as well as the research and writing of the best scholars on the history of gay and lesbian activism. From the homophile movement of the 1940s to the queer and LGBT activism that emerged in the 1990s, Rethinking the Gay and Lesbian Movement integrates the individuals, groups, demonstrations, laws, and people that reshaped the way we think and talk about gay and lesbian rights. $46.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415874106, NZRP$58.00 Publish June 2012, 272 pages Routledge History & Philosophy

Nine-man American bomber crew were forced to bail out over Germany in August, 1944. Quickly taken prisoner by a mob of villagers, the soldiers were marched into the town of Rüsselsheim and assaulted before being left for dead at the nearby cemetery. Drawing from trial records, government archives, interviews with family members, and personal letters, the author follows two army officers charged with investigating the murders, and brings to life the dramatic story of how the depravations of war led the citizens of a sleepy German village to commit horrific acts. $24.95 Pb, ISBN 9780230341166, NZRP$32.95 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity History & Philosophy

Covert Racism

Hollow Land

Theories, Institutions, and Experiences

Israel’s Architecture of Occupation

Rodney D. Coates, University of Chicago, USA.

Eyal Weizman, University of London, UK.

Covert racism, subtle in application, often appears hidden by norms of association, affiliation, group membership and/or identity. As such, covert racism is often excused or confused with mechanisms of exclusion and inclusion, ritual and ceremony, acceptance and rejection. Covert racism operates as a boundary keeping mechanism whose primary purpose is to maintain social distance between racial majorities and racial minorities. $49.95 Pb, ISBN 9781608462100, NZRP$64.95 Publish June 2012, 461 pages Haymarket Current Affairs and Politics

Weizman unravels Israel’s mechanisms of control and the transformation of the Occupied Territories into an artifice in which all natural and built features function as the instruments of occupation. Weizman identifies the ideas behind this phenomenon and traces their development, from the influence of archaeology on urban planning, Ariel Sharon’s reconceptualization of military defense during the 1973 war, through the planning and architecture of the settlements, to the contemporary Israeli discourse and practice of urban warfare and airborne targeted assassinations. $34.00 Pb, ISBN 9781844678686, NZRP$43.00 Publish June 2012, 336 pages Verso Current Affairs & Politics

Marx and the Politics of Abstraction

Inevitable Democracy in the Arab World

Paul B. Paolucci, Ph.D., University of Kentucky, USA. Many scholars see science and politics as mutually exclusive, where the latter’s influence contaminates the former’s purity. Karl Marx’s detractors often criticize him on these grounds. Paolucci shows that through his method of critique, Marx incorporates the relations of knowledge and power into abstractions and traces their historical movement. This corrective more readily lays bare capitalist society’s exploitative nature. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9781608462094, NZRP$49.95 Publish June 2012, 239 pages Haymarket Current Affairs & Politics

In this comprehensive, multidiciplinary and thought-provoking book, Wissam S. Yafi argues that there are four dynamics leading to inevitable change in the Arab region: geopolitical, geoeconomic, geosocial, and technological. Yafi comes to the conclusion that no system will be able to support the dynamics in place except for democracy. Yafi showed that no system will be able to support the dynamics in place except for democracy, which will alter the current failed social contract to one that supports self-determination. $42.00 Pb, ISBN 9781137008497, NZRP$53.00 Publish June 2012, 336 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

State Capitalism, Contentious Politics and Large-Scale Social Change

Labor’s Last Stand

Vincent K. Pollard, Ph. D, University of Hawai‘, USA.

Jane McAlevey, CUNY Graduate Center, USA.

State capitalism is a normal form of capitalist development. Its extremes vary but it has been, and remains, central to understanding modern capitalism. This is especially the case in the so called Communist worlds of Russia and China, and for alternative economies like that of India and the Philippines, which are the focus of this timely and challenging book. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9781608462087, NZRP$49.95 Publish June 2012, 236 pages Haymarket Current Affairs & Politics

Jane McAlevey swept to fame-and notoriety-as the hard-charging “Hurricane Jane” who helped make Las Vegas one of the few labor success stories of recent years. Then she was bounced from the movement, a victim of the high-level internecine warfare that has torn apart organized labor. In an engrossing, suspenseful and funny narrative-that reflects the personality of its charismatic, intense and wise-cracking author- McAlevey tells the story of her amazing organizing victories and lifts the lid on the civil wars inside organized labor. $39.00 Hb, ISBN 9781844678853, NZRP$49.00 Publish June 2012, 240 pages Verso Current Affairs & Politics

The Fed and the Credit Crisis

A New Kind of Bleak

A Century of Change

Journeys Through Urban Britain

J. Kevin Corder, Western Michigan University, USA.

Owen Hatherley is the author of the acclaimed A Guide to the New Ruins of Great Britain.

What was the role of the Federal Reserve System in the 2008 financial crisis - as a cause of the crisis, as the most important government agency to respond, and as the center of federal efforts to prevent another crisis? J. Kevin Corder provides an incisive account of the Fed choices that contributed to the ‘crash of 2008’. Centering his analysis on the oversight of mortgage lending and the regulation/supervision of financial institutions and instruments, Corder draws out the implications of the crisis for the Fed’s mission. Equally, he charts the new political and technical challenges that the system faces as the financial sector recovers. $75.00 Hb, ISBN 9781588268204, NZRP$95.00 Publish June 2012, 160 pages Lynne Rienner Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Hatherley explores the urban consequences of what Conservatives privately call the “progressive nonsense” of the Big Society and “the localism agenda,” the putative replacement of the state with charity and voluntarism; and he casts an eye over the last great Blairite schemes limping to completion, from London’s Shard to the site of the 2012 Olympics. Crisscrossing Britain from Aberdeen to Plymouth, from Croydon to Belfast, A New Kind of Bleak finds a landscape left to rot- and discovers strange and potentially radical things growing in the wasteland. $46.00 Hb, ISBN 9781844678570, NZRP$58.00 Publish June 2012, 288 pages Verso Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

The Politics of Immigration in France, Britain and the United States

Revolt, Revolution, Critique

A Comparative Study

Bülent Diken, Lancaster University, UK.

Martin Schain, New York University, USA.

The book addresses the social, political and cultural significance of revolt and revolution in three dimensions. First, it analyzes revolt and revolution as ‘events’ which are of history but not reducible to it. Second, it elaborates on theories that grant revolt and revolution a central place in their structure. Thirdly, it discusses revolutionary or emancipatory theories that seek to participate in radical change. Further, since both revolt and revolution involve the critique of what exists, of actual reality, the implications of the intimate relationship between revolt, revolution and critique are explicated. $57.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415495455, NZRP$72.00 Publish June 2012, 204 pages Routledge Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Reflections on Anti-Semitism

Scattered Sand

Alain Badiou, École normale supérieure, France; Eroc Hazan, La Fabrique and Ivan Segre is a doctor of philosophy.

The Story of China’s Rurual Migrants Hsiao-Hung Pai is a freelance journalist.

Since the beginning of the “War on Terror,” Israel has become increasingly salient to imperial strategy and ever more aggressive in its policies toward the Palestinians. In this context, a key ideological weapon is the cynical accusation of “anti-Semitism.” For historical reasons, this has been deployed most forcefully in France, and the authors caustically demolish the “anti-Semitism is everywhere” allegation, used to bludgeon opponents of the Israeli state and those who stand in solidarity with the banlieue youth. $46.00 Pb, ISBN 9781844678778, NZRP$58.00 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Verso Current Affairs & Politics Quantity

Each year, 200 million workers from China’s vast rural interior travel between cities and regions in search of employment: the largest human migration in history. This indispensable army of labor contributes half of China’s GDP, but is an unorganized workforce-”scattered sand”-and the most marginalized and impoverished group of workers in the country. The author traveled across China to uncover the exploitation of workers at locations as diverse as Olympic construction sites and brick kilns in the Yellow River region, the factories of the Pearl River Delta and the suicideridden Foxconn complex. $39.00 Hb, ISBN 9781844678860, NZRP$49.00 Publish June 2012, 320 pages Verso Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

The authors combine a rich analytical narrative, data on nearly 40,000 candidates, and colorful stories from the campaign trail in House and Senate elections ever presented.

The Palestine-Israel conflict is the most notorious and ingrained conflict of the twentieth, and now twenty-first, century. Yet coverage of it in the media is often confusing, leading many to assume the hostilities stretch back to an ancient period. The Palestine-Israel Conflict provides a clear, accessible, and annotated introduction that covers the full history of the region. This balanced account includes material on the Israeli assault on the Gaza aid flotilla, and is invaluable for anyone who wants a clear guide to the conflict, and its place in the history of Middle Eastern affairs. $34.00 Pb, ISBN 9780745332130, NZRP$43.00 Publish June 2012, 216 pages Pluto Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Ernesto de Martino (1908-1965) is one of the brightest critical thinkers of the 20th century. With the popularity of subaltern studies and its focus on the figure of Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937), a burgeoning interest around the figure of de Martino has decreed his centrality within religious studies, with particular reference to the study of vernacular religions and folklore studies. This volume aims to fill a gap within religious studies by providing a comprehensive overview of Ernesto de Martino’s life and work and the applications of his methodological approach in contemporary scholarship. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9781845536350, NZRP$49.95 Publish June 2012, 192 pages Equinox Publishing Quantity Memoir

Nizari Ismailis embrace peoples of widely different ethnic and linguistic backgrounds.

Sigismund's Watch

Longing, Belonging, and Displacement

A Tiny Catastrophe

Vanessa Corby.

Barbara Loftus, with Monica Bohm-Duchen and Esther Leslie.

Here is an important new examination of the work of American German Jewish artist Eva Hesse,. Using exciting new feminist approaches and taking as her starting point two key works, Corby reveals the way in which Hesse has been constructed as a 'woman artist' and explores the overlooked legacy of the Holocaust and refugee life in her art practice. Considering creativity and the feminine, trauma and historiography, and providing a reassessment of Hesse's relationship with her mother and its impact on her work, the book also confirms the importance of drawing practice within Hesse's wider oeuvre. $44.00 Hb, ISBN 9781845115449, NZRP$55.00 Published June 2010, 250 pages Philip Wilson Publishers Quantity Art

Barbara Loftus' figurative paintings and works in other media are known for their exploration of the interface between personal memory and historical events. This book, which takes its subtitle from the writings of the cultural critic Siegfried Kracauer, she reflects on the convergence of public and private life in a study of trans-generational memory. She focuses on a day long ago in the life of her mother Hildegard during the economically volatile Weimar period in Germany. The work is accompanied by three studies of Loftus' work which identify recurrent themes, imagery and influences. $54.95 Hb, ISBN 9780856677090, NZRP$69.95 Published October 2011, 112 pages Philip Wilson Publishers Quantity Art

Jennifer L. Dunn, Southern Illinois University, USA.

Weaving together distinct strands of recent South Asian immigration to the United States, Uncle Swami creates a richly textured discussion of a diverse and dynamic people whose identities are all too often lumped together. Prashad confronts the experience of migration across an expanse of generations and class divisions, from the birth of political activism among second-generation immigrants and the meteoric rise of South Asian American politicians in Republican circles to migrant workers, who are at the mercy of the vicissitudes of the American free market. $37.00 Hb, ISBN 9781595587848, NZRP$47.00 Publish June 2012, 208 pages The New Press Society & Culture

Dunn explores the shifting perceptions over time of victims as blameworthy, blameless, pathetic, or heroic figures. She also links those images to their real-world consequences, demonstrating that they dominate the ways in which people think about intimate violence and individual responsibility. $37.00 Pb, ISBN 9781588268198, NZRP$47.00 Publish June 2012, 241 pages Lynne Rienner Quantity Society & Culture

In this illuminating Handbook, Martin White offers an in-depth, moment-by-moment analysis of the play, looking at how it might be performed on stage, provides vital contextual material on John Ford’s social and literary influences, reconstructs the play’s performances in Ford’s own time and examines later stage, television and film productions, guides the reader through the often heated critical and theatrical responses to the dramatic work. $24.95 Pb, ISBN 9780230242999, NZRP$29.95 Publish June 2012, 176 pages Palgrave Macmillan Literature

Munday presents advances towards a general theory of evaluation in translator decisionmaking. By ‘evaluation’ the author refers to how a translator’s subjective stance manifests itself linguistically in a text. To this end, the book focuses on the translation process (rather than the product) and strives to identify more precisely those points where the translator is most likely to express judgment or evaluation. The translations studied cover a range of languages (Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and American Sign Language) accompanied by English glosses. $62.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415577700, NZRP$78.00 Publish June 2012, 208 pages Routledge Quantity Language

Gender Matters

Middleton and Rowley: The Changeling

Sara Mills, Sheffield Hallam University, UK.

Jay O’Berski, Duke University, USA.

This book explores how gender relates to and shapes our understanding of sexism, reading and writing, politeness and public speaking. The essays in the book examine a range of questions: why is it necessary for feminists to analyse or comment on sexism when sexism is widely regarded as an anachronistic concern? How can feminists describe the effect of gender on the experience of literature? In analysing these themes, Gender Matters highlights the insights and strengths of both second and third wave feminist analysis for linguistics. $44.00 Pb, ISBN 9781845534967, NZRP$55.00 Publish June 2012, 256 pages Equinox Publishing Language

The Changeling by Thomas Middleton and William Rowley is a luridly sensual dramatic work which was highly regarded in its day, but then largely forgotten until its revival three hundred years later.
