First, my thanks to the students who have discussed their dissertations with me over the years. Without the works in progress and outlines of completed studies this book would not be what it is: a special thank you to the students from Brookes and elsewhere whose work appears here. Thanks to colleagues at Oxford Brookes University, UK and elsewhere who so gener-ously contributed thoughts for the first edition, from inception to critical review. Thanks also to reviewers who offered generous feedback and advice for this new edition and to Jane Penty (University of the Arts) and Clare Parfitt (University of Chichester) for their advice on new content.

Finally, thanks to Sallie Godwin for her inventive and astute illustrations, and to Helen Caunce, Suzannah Burywood and colleagues in the editing and production teams at Red Globe Press who have been endlessly supportive and creative in making this book happen.
