New Book Titles

Happy New Year! Please see below for a listing of new books due out in January 2018 (organized by title). I have also included a few more titles published in December 2017.

As many of you know, I normally highlight new books on a Pinterest page that I first launched in November 2012. However, over the years, Pinterest has made design changes that, in my view, have diminished the user experience and have made the administrator's job more difficult. So, as of this new year, I have decided to discontinue posting book references on Pinterest. As an alternative, I will experiment with a new book blog! This will give me more control over the look and feel, and it will enable me to offer additional features, such as an RSS feed, email subscriptions, and links to book reviews, sample chapters and open access texts.
