‘This book is a gem. The editors’ introduction not only provides context for the contributors’ essays; it also provides a sophisticated epistemologically rich investigation into the various understandings of what it means to undertake comparative analysis. And the other contributors do much more than bring us up to date in various fields. They also create new fields, propose to redefine traditional fields, ask new questions, point to new directions, and draw on unexpected and informative material to buttress their claims. The new student, the advanced graduate student, and the established research scholar will all find it to their advantage to consult this volume frequently. A must for every scholarly library.’
