B(u)y me

If only every day at work could be this fun! I arrived at the office this morning to find 6 copies of my Now Published Book waiting in my pigeon hole, and spent the rest of the day rushing about between teaching watching my inbox fill up with lovely messages. My face hurts from smiling. And those of you reading this who manage to find a copy – order it for your library, even I can’t afford it – will see that it’s dedicated to you!

    Congratulations! I don’t have an institutional library but I have a lot of friends who do, and who are receiving an email about it :)

    Congrats! Have you arranged for the nice folks at Palgrave to send copies off to relevant journals for review?
