Mac Giolla Chriost's study of the role of Irish in the republican conflict in Northern Ireland - and, more broadly, the often-complex relationship between language and political violence - is nuanced, innovative, and deeply compelling. This is sociolinguistic study at its very best. Professor Stephen May, The University of Auckland
