This symposium had a particular theme of concern to all research active staff at GSA, namely:

'How To Get an Academic Book Published'

All the speakers have recently published an academic volume and they spoke not only about their book itself but their experiences finding and dealing with a publisher. It is vital that this experience is disseminated throughout the school, so that everyone has access to this vital know-how.
