'Comprehensive and thorough, Utopias in Nonfiction Film takes a new direction in its surprise application to documentary that has the potential to shake up the field.'
- Jane Gaines, Columbia University, USA
'Spiegel has introduced a new sub-genre to utopian studies, the documentary film. The book covers an impressive range of films, making the book one of the few truly international and comparative works in utopian studies.'
- Lyman Tower Sargent, University of Missouri-St. Louis, USA
'Simon Spiegel's magisterial overview of utopian documentaries and nonfiction films is a treasure trove of information and unearths many forgotten and half-forgotten films, providing perceptive discussions of sidelined movies that deserve his (and our) critical scrutiny.'
- Eckart Voigts, University of Braunschweig - Institute of Technology, Germany
