Building on recent work on Victorian print culture and the turn toward material historical research in modernist studies, this collection extends the frontiers of scholarship on the "Atlantic scene" of publishing, exploring new ways of grappling with the rapidly changing universe of print at the turn of the twentieth century.

For three decades, Nigeria missed its opportunities to use oil wealth for economic transformation. Since 2003, there have been remarkable efforts to reform economic policies across a wide range. The challenge is enormous and the process of reform will need to continue for many years. The design of policy reform must rest on a firm basis of evidence and analysis. This book demonstrates that there is already sufficient evidence on the Nigerian economy and society to inform many policy issues. Under the auspices of the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Centre for the Study of African Economies, Oxford University, Nigerian and international scholars have convened to deploy this evidence to reveal the current problems and policy options that a democratic Nigeria will need to debate and resolve. It presents an agenda of reform as unfinished business.

In this, his second book, Vermont poet Joseph Collier's claims of Divine Inspiration are put to the test. Does the God Jehovah, through Collier's quill, really wish to share a kinder, gentler, and more introspective side of Himself? Although Jehovah was unavailable for comment, Collier said of their relationship: "He's an okay guy mostly, but He also has some serious anger-management issues that may complicate any possible future collaborations."

Whether inspired by Jehovah, or merely cheap muscatel, Collier's mix of the serious and the zany will make you think, laugh, and cry. Described by Emma Strahs' of the Burlington Free Press as "beautiful" and "poignant," his works deal with many universal themes of human existence.

Join him as he tries to answer the question: Is it God, or is it Man? Will the world learn The Truth before it is too late? Can the world handle The Truth?
