RE: Reprinting Core/Periphery Relations
DATE: February 26, 1995
ATTENTION: Those who dislike book notices, or are on more than
one of the listservs in "TO" hit "DEL" now!
Westview has notified us that our edited collection is entirely
out of stock. As editors we, naturally, would like to see it
reprinted, but are aware it may have run its course.
Because in the last two years people from each of the listservs
above have corresponded with us about the collection, we are
posting this general request. Should this collection be
reprinted? If yes have you, or would you, use it in a class?
Could you send replies to:
Tom Hall thall@depauw.edu
or if you want write directly to:
Dean Birkencamp

Thanks, in advance, to all who respond. Apologies to all others
for this mail.
