"The perspectives represented are broad and refreshing,
accessible to a non-specialist, but authoritative ... This volume
is very well suited as a teaching text for advanced undergraduate
or beginning graduate students. However, I recommend it for any
practioner having an interest in the recent trends and advances
that are affecting what archaeology is and will be."
Historical Archaeology
"For those in search of a single volume that provides a series
of state of the art portrayals of the diverse approaches dopted by
archeologists in their endeavour to explore and understand the
past, look no further."
Post-Medieval Archaeology
"One of the best introductions to modern archaeology in all her
guises that I have ever read"
H-Net Reviews in the Humanities and Social Sciences
"This is a large book, and as promised in the introduction it
delivers in a sophisticated way emerging insights on a broad range
of key archaeological themes ... I can strongly recommend this
volume to the professional and student alike."
Australian Archaeology
"This book is clearly organized and the material presented in a
fair and often innovative manner."
Bryn Mawr Classical Review
"This important book offers a thought-provoking analysis of many
of archaeology’s most pressing controversies. Both students
and interested laypeople will find this a satisfying journey though
the complexities of a rapidly changing, increasingly
multidisciplinary archaeological world."
Brian Fagan, University of California Santa Barbara
"A refreshingly wide set of topics, covered by an impressive and
authoritative array of authors."
