Mixed feelings on this one. Some of the analyses were quite sharp and insightful, but other areas felt a bit underdeveloped. It's useful for getting different perspectives, but I had to supplement it a lot.

Provides a great overview and summary of key concepts. I found it really helpful for revising before my mid-term. It brought together a lot of disparate ideas in one place effectively.

It's decent. There were some interesting points, especially in the earlier sections. I felt some of the later discussions could have been expanded upon or updated with more recent examples. Still, a good starting point.

Honestly, I was hoping for more. A few sections felt a bit superficial and didn't really go into the depth I needed for my advanced seminar. It might be better for an introductory level, but it wasn't what I was looking for.

A solid resource for understanding the topic. The case studies were particularly insightful and it provided a good foundation for my essay. Some parts felt a little dense but overall very useful.
