Books for review: Journal of the Association for History and Computing (JAHC)

Books for review: Journal of the Association for History and Computing (JAHC)

Hello, everyone. I am the new book reviews editor for JAHC. I have a number of books that I need reviews; if you are interested, please let me know which book, and a short paragraph on your background and in what ways you qualify to review the books that you have asked for. If you have any questions, let me know. Also, please send me your mailing address. Book reviews would be due by October 1, 2008. No international reviewers at this time, please; postage comes out of my own pocket. Thanks. Brad

(Please contact Brad for the lastest titles - these might have been taken)
