"While this book has been principally written for higher education teachers, managers and policy-makers, it would also assist lawyers who are asked to advise universities and authors about the growing issues surrounding plagiarism." -- Sharon Givoni, 2008, Internet Law Bulletin
"The significance of this book, especially the plagiarism continuum model as presented, extends beyond its excellent depth and breadth of research and theoretical sophistication. In particular, it provides a means of conceptualising plagiarism and directions on how to respond to the changes that the phenomenon of plagiarism poses for all parties in the education area. It also presents a holistic approach for all parties including staff, students and the university to share the responsibility for academic integrity rather than leaving the responsibility to any one stakeholder. To the author’s credit, indeed, it is a timely and practical handbook for all teachers, administrators and policy makers to navigate in the mushy ‘plagiarism’ land."--Helen Song Turner, Australian Universities Review, Vol. 51, No. 2, 2009
"Sutherland-Smith's treatment of the topic of plagiarism and its attendant issues is both refreshing and educative. Her narrative style is engaging and grounds the work in a practical context."--Gerry White, Australian Journal of Education, August 2009: 209-211
