An unexpected facet of the Emerald Isle is revealed to the reader in this study of a unique environment on the westernmost edge of Europe. The limestone karst landscape of The Burren, its clints and grykes home to an enormous variety of plants and animals, is punctuated by wetland habitats and fringed with a rocky Atlantic coastline. For the dedicated botanist and tourist alike, it is the display of summer flora which is the highlight of The Burren's year. This title is a comprehensive and detailed study of an increasingly well known area of special interest. Gordon D'Arcy has provided a wealth of information in a straightforward and readable text. The geology, archaeology, ecology, agriculture and most vit ally the future of The Burren all come under D'Arcy's keen eye.

Janel Mueller's excellent edition is at once an accessible opening up of Donne's verse and prose for the modern reader, and a rich exploration of the material forms in which Donne's writing originally circulated. Mueller's generous notes, and a lightly modernised text, help readers with questions of genre, historical context, and biography, while facsimiles of manuscripts and printed editions, and discussions of early readers and later editorial responses, convey some of the latest research on the history of reading and of the material text.
