Dissertating During a Pandemic: Narratives of Success from Scholars
of Color examines the experiences of doctoral students of color
writing the dissertation currently and those who successfully
defended their dissertation after the onset of COVID-19 and
subsequent shutting down of college campuses in March 2020. While
we know that scholars of color experience many barriers to
completing the dissertation process prior to COVID-19 such as being
in racist academic environments and being engaged in research areas
that may not be supported by predominantly White faculty, it is
important to consider how scholars of color are managing the
dissertation process during this pandemic. We approach this book
from an asset-based approach where chapter authors are approaching
both the challenges and opportunities they have experienced due to
being a dissertation writer during the pandemic. Chapter authors
also provide poignant feedback on how professors can be supportive
to their needs as dissertation writers. One especially important
contribution of this book is that our authors are from a variety of
disciplines including: education, social work, psychology, African
American studies, and sociology. Additionally, chapter authors are
doctoral candidates (and recent graduates) at predominantly White
institutions, historically Black colleges and universities, and
online universities. Given the breadth of institution types each
chapter will provide poignant suggestions for doctoral students
across the nation as well as for faculty who are looking to better
understand the dissertation writer experience to support their own
students. Because of the novelty of COVID-19, little is known about
how doctoral students engaged in writing the dissertation during
COVID19 are adapting. Moreover, there is little information
available for professors on how to support their doctoral students
during these unprecedented times. Thus, Dissertating During a
Pandemic: Narratives of Success from Scholars of Color is
positioned to be a must read for professors looking to support
their doctoral student advisees as well as for doctoral students
who are looking for strategies to navigate the dissertation process
during the pandemic and beyond.
This volume celebrates the contributions of Dr. Eugene Gaffney to
the study of turtles, through a diverse and complementary
collection of papers that showcases the latest research on one of
the most intriguing groups of reptiles. A mix of focused and review
papers deals with numerous aspects of the evolutionary history of
turtles, including embryonic development, origins, early
diversification, phylogenetic relationships, and biogeography.
Moreover it includes reports on important but poorly understood
fossil turtle assemblages, provides historical perspectives on
turtle research, and documents disease and variation in turtles.
With its broad scope, which includes descriptions of material and
new taxa from Australia, Asia, and Europe, as well as North and
South America, this work will be an essential resource for anyone
interested in the morphology and evolution of turtles. "This
volume's breadth of time, geography, and taxonomic coverage makes
it a major contribution to the field and a 'must have' for all
vertebrate paleontologists.", James F. Parham, California State
University, CA, USA "A comprehensive and sweeping overview of
turtle evolution by the top experts in the field that will interest
everyone curious about these unique reptiles." Jason S. Anderson,
University of Calgary, Canada "An invaluable addition to the
literature that covers the full spectrum of approaches toward
understanding the evolution of these noble creatures." Ann C.
Burke, Wesleyan University, CT , USA "A truly comprehensive volume
that both the student of fossil turtles, as well as the general
reader interested in these enigmatic creatures, will find
fascinating." Tyler Lyson, Yale University, CT, USA

This series is designed for those who know biblical languages. It
is written primarily for the pastor and Bible teacher, not for the
scholar. That is, the aim is not to review and offer a critique of
every possible interpretation that has ever been given to a
passage, but to exegete each passage of Scripture succinctly in its
grammatical and historical context. Each passage is interpreted in
the light of its biblical setting, with a view to grammatical
detail, literary context, flow of biblical argument, and historical
setting. While the focus will not be on application, it is expected
that the authors will offer suggestions as to the direction in
which application can flow.
