Subject: summaries of ongoing work
In attempting to figure out how humanities computing relates to this or
that field of study I find myself most indebted to summaries and overviews
written by leading scholars for an intelligent audience of non-specialists.
Such things are very hard to write but invaluable if well done. Recently I
came across an announcement of a series intended for the purpose. I pass
along the following in case someone here is inclined to attempt such a book.
Other publishers are of course welcome to inform us of similarly relevant
opportunities, don't you think?
>PALGRAVE ADVANCES
>
>Palgrave Advances offer a series of innovative books that orientate
>graduate and upper-level students within the current state of a field of
study.
>
>Providing introductions to/overviews of the key debates in a field of
>study, each text brings together leading international scholars, and
>surveys, questions and pushes the boundaries of the discipline.
>
>Foregrounding new research, these books seek to map the future direction
>of the field and as such are invaluable for students, scholars and lecturers.
>
>Who are the Palgrave Advances for?
>
>· Graduate students
>· Upper-level undergraduate students
>· Scholars
>· Lecturers
