Today I have had an article writing day devoted to having a look at the online appearance of our recently published book Semiotic agency: Science beyond mechanism, and writing altogether some 300 words on my second wasted growth article and the review article I am co-writing on GDP. Number of writing days so far this Spring is up to 11.
Book "Semiotic agency: Science beyond mechanism" published
On Wednesday I was informed by Springer that the book Semiotic agency: Science beyond mechanism, which I have co-written (as second author) with Alexei Sharov, has been published. On that day this did not appear to be the case judging by the book´s webpage, which was unchanged, with no sales links. By Thursday, however, info online was updated, and the book can now be bought in Hardcover version (109.99 Euro) or eBook version (93.08 Euro).
The book is said to be part of the following eBook packages (for institutional subscribers):
- Biomedical and Life Sciences
- Biomedical and Life Sciences (RO)
Chapters can also be bought individually (24.95 Euro) - preview (freely available) includes abstract and references:
Two PDF files of significance can freely be accessed online:
- Front matter (pp. i-xxiii), which includes Preface, Acknowledgements, table of contents, List of figures, and List of tables
- Back matter (pages 349-372), which includes Glossary and Index
The book is volume no. 25 in the Biosemiotics book series.
On Amazon publication date is now said to be February 9th (2 days ago). The price here is $139.99 for Hardcover version. Kindle version is available for $29.55 for rent, or $114.16 for sale. Kindle version is said to be 687 pages long.
I am still waiting to receive print copy as well as eBook version personally.
