University of Florida, book signing August 8, 2026

It's published by "Cambridge Scholars," which is an independent press that prides itself on "taking a chance" by publishing books more competitive presses would reject, with little-to-no peer review. People complain about peer review as "gate-keeping," but a rigorous pre-publication review serves to give readers confidence that what they're reading has been vetted by scholars who are familiar with the field. When considering whether to believe what you read, you should always consider the publisher.
