<i>‘This definitive work edited by two international authorities on diversity in corporate governance sets out with clarity the complexities of diversity, and the importance of intersectionality in explaining continuing structural inequality in representation on company boards. Providing multi-dimensional explanations, the analysis goes beyond social capital and examines the dynamic capabilities of boards, and how diversity may contribute to these. The role of leadership and team dynamics are clearly articulated with reference to performance on contemporary boards of directors and the expert research provides a deeper and wider understanding of the nature of diversity on boards, with fresh and incisive perspectives.’</i>

<i>‘This is a timely and interesting book for several reasons. First, board diversity is a growing and important phenomenon, but despite a growing bulk of research, there is still a lot to learn about its drivers and consequences. Second, the editors and the authors are passionate governance scholars who have published several studies on board diversity. For these reasons, I consider this book a useful resource for all scholars that want to better investigate and understand such a complex and relevant topic.’</i>
