[CITASA] CITASA awards deadline nearing
I would like to mention, in an entirely self-serving way, that all
three books in the book awards section are published with the MIT
Press, which happens to have a 50% off promotion for all printed books
this week. Order directly from the MIT Press and use code "SHARE50" at
checkout. Valid until Monday. You can get all three books at once! :)
Here are the links to each of the three books on the MIT Press website.

And thank you to the award committees for the hard work.
