Hemmings, Independent Polar Specialist and an Adjunct Associate Professor, Gateway Antarctica Centre for Antarctic Studies and Research, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand and Peder Roberts, University of Stavanger, Norway

'Quite breathtaking in its coverage, this brilliantly conceived and meticulously edited Handbook on the Politics of Antarctica is the most competent collection of contributions by leading experts to be published to date. An innovative, interdisciplinary conceptualization of Antarctica, offering theoretically informed analysis of various facets of Antarctic governance and geopolitics, further enhance the universal appeal of this extraordinary effort and virtually guarantee its presence on the bookshelves of libraries.'
