Don't thinks it's very helpful because of corporate language, but happy to forward the T&F emails for your research if you pm me your email address...

The whole thing happened because of AUP books being bought, but I'm assuming you mean why open access (temporarily - see my other reply) disappeared? I really don't know, so far I'm assuming there's a lot going on because of the takeover and eventually the AUP stuff will appear on the T&F website...

Thanks for the link, I was not able to open access the book via library.oapen yesterday but now it seems to work again. still not not great that it seems to have disappeared from google search. But probably/hopefully a De Gruyter PDF version will eventually be more easy to find via google.

She has a back cover now, too! Would be so grateful if you’d preorder, request your library to acquire it, tell your friends, etc. Officially out in November.

I'm so disappointed my book (funded by public money) was purchased by a rentier capitalist plattform registered in a tax haven. Open access file is not available anymore since today, but I uploaded it here:
