Praise for The Middle Kingdoms

Fascinating, masterful ... The breadth of Rady's coverage is as impressive as it is eclectic, with gems scattered throughout the book.

Peter Frankopan, Spectator

This is a very impressive book, quirkily original but also scholarly and authoritative, to be read for pleasure and serious reflection, whether in a beer hall in Prague or a pastry shop in Vienna - or a bomb ...

Noel Malcolm, The Telegraph

A brilliantly suggestive account of central Europe from Attila to Zizek. The Middle Kingdoms is a masterly synthesis.
