Review
The examples provided display the author's rich understanding of the implicit and powerful role of cultural assumptions, patterns and values. Indeed the wealth and variety of examples constitute the great strength and joy of this book. (Rosalind Gill, TTR) ... stunningly clear and convincing ... entertaining, readable, and eminently useful. (Christine Pagnoulle, Perspectives)
