4.0 out of 5 stars Think about it
Unfortunately the authors' don't set the price the publishers do. Why
not complain to Routledge or order it from the library. I'm sure the
authors are as annoyed about the price as you are. Hopefully it will come out in paperback which will make it more affordable. Academic publishing practices are keeping lots of good material out of the reach of those who...

1.0 out of 5 stars Wow! You're like completely useless! THANKS!
Hey! This book is so useful being 112 dollars or whatever that i'll be sure to distro them while tabling at the next protest!

In fact, we regularly make sure to pass around books that are a minimum of 100 dollars while on the barricades, it really is a central tactic. These authors actually started the Million Dollar Book Bloc.

I wish 35 more...

Academic publishing practices are keeping lots of good material out of the reach of those who might be interested, and the authors will be making hardly anything of this, given hardback print runs top out at 300 copies and the authors get a measly 5%. Lets do the math, If they sell them all I reckon they'd make about $1800 between two of them for writing a book! That's way under minimum wage!

I wish 35 more academics could make their careers off other people's grassroots activism, and maybe next time they could charge 100 MORE dollars and then the REVOLUTION would HAPPEN, MAN!

Thanks soooo much to the authors! We'd like, almost read this!
