‘. . . an impressive number of international contributions have been collected in the Handbook, from many of the field’s leading researchers, including its founding father, William Kahn. As a developing scholar in this field, I found much in the list of contents to interest me, and I immediately turned to some of the contributions to find out more. It is pleasing to see contributions from both academic and consultancy based engagement practitioners and the overall style of writing is accessible and clear. . . I think that the editor has met his objectives for the volume and has done an excellent job in creating a volume that summarises that state of play of engagement research. . . This volume is a very welcome addition to the field and certainly a work I will find value in revisiting over time.’
