'The text sets adaptation in the context of wider issues of culture and identity relevant to any module on Shakespeare.' - John Marland, College of Ripon & York St John 'The book is more student-orientated than the usual range on Shakespeare and film, as well as being critically challenging. A rewarding book for undergraduates and a good starting place for postgraduates.' - Maria Jones, University of Wolverhampton 'This is an excellent book, which I will strongly recommend to my students.' - David Olive, Manchester Metropolitan University
