Books touch every aspect of our lives, and the business of making books can be as interesting, diverse and thought provoking as life itself. The Bucknell University Press Blog is about the unusual and the surprising in the everyday world of academic publishing, about the unexpected cultural, social and artistic realms opened for our consideration, and about the remarkable ways in which our authors and their books enable us to engage in a world far beyond the boundaries of our historic and picturesque Pennsylvania town.
