Reviews

"The North oscillates between a region seen as distant and removed from the modern world to a region on the forefront of contemporary climate change. Critical Norths: Space, Nature, Theory edited by Sarah Jaquette Ray and Kevin Maier tackles these dichotomies beginning with the volume's title. . . . The editors and contributors are to be praised for producing a well-written and coherent collection."-- "AAG Review of Books"
