New Publications

New Publications (31 October 2004)

Compiled by Laurie Patton

Compiler's Note: Here is the compilation of the first notifications I received back in September. I should add that I did NOT include works that were listed as "forthcoming";  it's best I think to wait until the works are really out before they get listed. Also, in the future, for new publications on the web, could folks provide the date? It can be hard to track down. If I have missed anyone, please do let me know and I will include you in the next list right away. These notifications were sent from many different sources, and not simply from the authors themselves.
