Psychosocial Imaginaries Reviews

This edited book is a wonderful contemporary introduction to this body of psychosocial work, enabling readers to get a flavour of its subject matters, its methods and its theoretical points of departure. This book is likely to appeal to theorists and researchers, both student and well-established, from a wide range of disciplines within the humanities. ... In conclusion, this edited book offers a rich display of the best of contemporary psychosocial thinking. (Lisa Saville Young, PINS Psychologyin Society, Issue 52, 2016)
