POMEPS Professional Development Seminar #4
Hidden Curriculum: How to Publish Your First Book
POMEPS is committed to helping early career scholars from the Middle East and North Africa region. In the fourth POMEPS Professional Development Seminar, Marc Lynch and Jillian Schwedler discuss how to submit a book as a first time author. This webinar gives advice to junior scholars who want to turn their dissertation into a book in an effort to demystify the process. They are joined by Caelyn Cobb of Columbia University Press, Kate Wahl of Stanford University Press, and David McBride of Oxford University Press. For more on turning a dissertation into a university press book, read Abu Aardvark’s recent blog post, “Hidden Curriculum: Publishing Your First Book.”
