HDR alert, Parramatta, Sydney and beyond!

Has anyone recovered from T & F swallowing Amsterdam University Press?

So much for the generous labour of editors, peer reviewers, & scholars who believed in O/A.

You probably know where to find Transnational Flows —a volume I co-edited with Barak Kalir during my PhD.

What is a University Press?

Can see some familiar faces & looking forward to meaningful exchanges here. Have you seen my documentary film on bicycling cultures and air pollution in India? Here you go, screen & share. m.youtube.com/watch?v=V4el...
