Recenzje

What could be timelier in a new century that is lurching from one
dramatic event to the next, than a text that encourages candidates to imagine an alternative approach to global problems? ... A timely text that has appeared at a stage in world history when‘business as usual’ would appear to be a very dangerous pathway’  Dr Christine Black, Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, May 2009
