Why do publishers make it so difficult to find out about forthcoming books? For instance, the McFarland website has no way to search by all books + latest, by date. But after some naughty URL-hacking by me, they do now. Though even then you still have to manually open the book blurb fold-away section for each and every page. And then another section to get the publication date. Sigh. Oh, for a unified all-publishers news-feed for all forthcoming non-fiction books in English. Hint: it’s definitely not Amazon, which is rubbish at that and also clogged up with shovelware and ‘blank notepads’ junk.
Anyway, some possible forthcoming or just-out McFarland titles of interest to Tentaclii readers. As always with McFarland, some will be gems, some clunkers…
