Recenzje

"I can envision this book as being helpful to a variety of audiences, from students writing term papers to scholars trying to stay abreast of the state of the field. The editor is to be commended for gathering such a diverse and interesting collection of essays and for breathing new life into a field that too many have thought to be obsolete." - Matthew A. Sears, UNB, AHBOR 10 (2020) 43-46
