[acc-cca-l] Announcement: new open access book on digital humanities

[Kyle Conway]

I’m excited to announce the publication of a new book on digital humanities — Failing Gloriously by Shawn Graham at Carleton University in Ottawa — published in open access (through a CC-BY license) by the Digital Press at the University of North Dakota (https://thedigitalpress.org/).

Here’s the description from the publisher:

The essays in this collection document Shawn Graham’s odyssey through the digital humanities and digital archaeology set against the changing landscape of the 21st-century North American university. Stylish, insightful, and heartfelt, Graham reflects on the role of failure over the course of his career. This isn’t another Silicon Valley-type success story. Instead, Graham, who is an Associate Professor of Digital Humanities at Carleton University in Ottawa, reframes failure outside of a triumphant narrative and uses his own struggles as a way to remind us, "Don't be an asshole. Practice radical kindness. Help other people avoid the rocks."

It includes a foreword by Eric Kansa and an afterword by Neha Gupta.

As all of the Digital Press's books, this is available as a free download (at https://thedigitalpress.org/portfolio/failing-gloriously-and-other-essays/) or for $9 on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Failing-Gloriously-Other-Essays-Graham/dp/173284108X/).
