Book Reviews

I enjoy writing reviews of new scholarly work and think it's an important and under-appreciated part of academia. If you think your book fits my interests and would like to suggest I take a look at it, feel free to get in touch! Even if I can't find time for it I'd be delighted to hear from you.
