Transdisciplinary Studies
Sense Publishers

Edited by: Jeremy Hunsinger and Jason Nolan

Aims and Scope:

Transdisciplinary Studies is an internationally oriented book series created to generate new theories and practices to extricate transdisciplinary research from the confining discourses of traditional disciplinarities. Within transdisciplinary domains, this series will publish empirically grounded, theoretically sound work seeking to identify and solve global problems that conventional disciplinary perspectives cannot capture. Transdisciplinary Studies seeks to accentuate those aspects of scholarly research which cut across todays learned disciplines in an effort to define new axiologies and forms of praxis. This series intends to promote a new appreciation for transdisciplinary research to audiences that are seeking ways of understanding complex, global problems that many now realize disciplinary perspectives cannot fully address. Scholars, policy makers, educators and researchers working to address issues in technology studies, public finance, discourse studies, professional ethics, political analysis, learning, ecological systems, modern medicine, and other fields clearly are ready to begin investing in transdisciplinary models of research. It is for those many different audiences in these diverse fields that we hope to reach, not merely with topical research, but also through considering new epistemic and ontological foundations for of transdisciplinary research.

This is great! Thanks! It has to be bullshit, since the typescript isn't owned by the estate, which is what they are referring to, and the original MSS is lost as far as I know. As for Dracula's wife? He doesn't have one in the book. And if they're referring to Vlad Tsepes, that's someone else. But thanks. I'm having a picnic with the bloofer lady tomorrow on Toronto Island, and I'll show it to her!

Yuppers. Didn't sound quite right, which was why I was tossing it your way since the TSD was plugged in the article.
