**Glowing reviews for Palgrave Macmillan titles**

Why Music Moves Us
'For Bicknell, who fully understands music's ability to arouse and represent emotions, music is of moral benefit in educating them' - Times Literary Supplement

‘Non-Lethal’ Weapons
'...thoroughly researched...a comprehensive record.' - The Lancet

Quoting Death in Early Modern England
'This lively and thought-provoking book...is an ambitious and largely successful study, encouraging us to understand not merely how Renaissance epitaphs transcended their traditional Christian commemorative functions, but how a variety of concerns with "epitaphic closure" were intimately related to an emergent idea of authorship itself.’ - Peter Marshall, Times Literary Supplement

Germany's Gathering Crisis
The 2005 Federal Election and the Grand Coalition
'...does a masterful job of making its case in a series of lucid, well-written, and cogently argued chapters. Anyone who wishes to understand the German policy environment today would be well advised to read it.' - West European Politics

The Discursive Construction of History
'...an accomplished collection of articles written on a high level with findings of scholarly interest.' - Jewish Political Studies Review

The Invention of Europe in French Literature and Film

'While avoiding undue simplification, [Edward Ousselin] has thus written a book that is admirably accessible to the general reader...No faint praise is intended in saying that Ousselin's study is essentially an (intelligent and incisive) introduction to the subject.' - French Studies
