Recenzje

A Troubled Sleep is both a model for scholarship on contemporary issues and a gloomy forecast for the future of Northern Ireland. Waller brings immense scholarly skill to his effort to assess where the road ahead in Northern Ireland may lead ... There is a great deal of substance here, but Waller writes clearly, and one never feels bogged down by the complexities of Northern Ireland.
