Recenzii
"...the book should be read for what the Haukas's fascinating history teaches us about the politics of possession and the aesthetics of power." -- Religious Studies Review
"This is learning in it's most fundamental form and it would be useful for us to consider the lessons that books such as Embodying Colonial Memories have for the creation of a more encompassing anthropology of education." -- Anthopology & Education Quarterly
