Reviews

"‘Langley’s afterword mirrors the content of the book; her own multifaceted career positions her at the intersection of an array of disciplines, each of which—as this excellent volume exemplifies—contributes, in her words, to a “genuine expansion of knowledge"".’ Chloe Valenti, University of Cambridge"
