Editorial Reviews

Review

'...excellent and stimulating collection of essays.' - Maurice Walsh, BBC Journalist, New Statesman 'Excellent - useful for new concepts of revolution and key areas of study.' - Dr Mike Cronin, De Montfort University 'The coherence of the book is achieved through the theme of 'Revolution' which all the articles consciously develop, even where 'revolution' is not mentioned in the article title. A good book.' - Dr S Warwick-Haller, Kingston University
