'I have read Cinema and the Audiovisual Imagination and I continue to enjoy picking it up as food for thought.

It reads beautifully, and the headings within the chapters enable collage-readings, leaps between sections and new correspondences. This book has a solid conceptual base, but what I love about it most is that it's written by a maker as well as a thinker.'

Professor Marielle Nitoslawska, Film Production Chair, Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema, Concordia University, Montreal.

'Taking Eisenstein's work as a point of departure, Cinema and the Audiovisual Imagination tackles the still relatively unexplored territory of cinematic sound-image relations. Robert Robertson's thoughtful and accessible text analyses work made by a diverse range of filmmakers, and offers some stimulating and original insights into the audiovisual dynamics at work in a rich selection of films.'

Dr Andy Birtwistle, Reader in Film and Sound, Department of Media, Art and Design, Canterbury Christ Church University.

'This book flows - it is immersive: each page offers innovative audiovisual perspectives through which cinema can be experienced and explored, with examples from films both past and present.'

Maureen Kendal, Senior Lecturer in Multimedia, Faculty of Life Sciences and Computing, London Metropolitan University.
