Well, I loved the introduction!!
Can’t wait to read this!!!
There it is! The first printed copy of my Texas Chain Saw Massacre book manuscript, ready for one last copy-edit before I submit the final version.
Few pre-book copies of "Unlimited: Aspirational Politics and Mobile Media Distribution" arrived in package, and some kind endorsements from scholars whom I deeply respect. The book is going to be published in late March through MIT Press.
We should bring back the word countenance
Used it 15 times in my first book!
