Notice board

The JUST Book Reviews notice board has been created as a quick and easy way for us to communicate information to you which does not naturally slot into our other columns.

Fri Feb 24 2006   Many thanks to the EL lecturers at Italian universities who wrote in to say they were successfully using our reviews at their lectures. To answer your questions: No, we have no objection to the multiple photocopying of JBR material for didactic purposes. And yes, that applies to universities and schools in any country, not just Italy. Please continue to keep us posted!

In response to your requests, we have started to improve the layout of the reviews in our "Failing faculties" series and have already added some useful links and images.

We have now added the first page of a new Images gallery to the highly popular ongoing "Failing faculties" survey. We look forward to receiving your proposals for future images and also your quality colour photos (on jpeg) of pertinent people and places. Please send to [email protected].

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to readers for the positive response to our ongoing "Failing faculties" survey and a special thanks to all those who provided material. Please keep it coming in! 

In response to the many requests received, we can confirm that all of the "Failing faculties" reviews were indeed written by the same author, Domenico Pacitti, who heads the JBR editorial team. Pacitti's unmistakeable style in these pieces should have been a giveaway. However, in order to put a final end to some of the speculation that has arisen on this issue, a new byline has been added to each review.
