They also recorded 'fireside chats' with their authors to launch the books. Watch Conversations with Tim Ingold (Tim Ingold and his co-authors, Robert Gibb, Philip Tonner, and Diego Maria Malara, discuss why open access matters and share insights on why they chose SUP and how they found the experience), and Dr. Richard Irvine in conversation with Hannah Whaley and Gillian Daly (Richard covers his experiences of living in a Benedictine monastery, his thoughts on stability and the future of monastic life, and more challenging topics such as sexual abuse).
