After Collapse: The Regeneration of Complex
Societies
(Univ. of Arizona Press, 2006) edited by Glenn M. Schwartz, Whiting
Professor of Archaeology, and John Nichols, JHU PhD 2004, has been
named an "Outstanding Academic Title" by Choice Magazine, the
magazine of the Association of College and Research Libraries.
The statement from Choice reads in part:
"These outstanding works have been selected for their excellence
in scholarship and presentation, the significance of their contribution
to the field, and their value as important often the first treatment of
their subject. Comprising just over 9% of the titles reviewed by Choice
during the past year, and less than 3% of the more than 25,000 titles
submitted to Choice during this same period, Outstanding Academic
Titles are truly "the best of the best." As always, only a
select group of publishers and authors are represented on such a list.
Congratulations on this outstanding achievement."
