Congratulations to Professor Prosanta Chakrabarty @LSU - so great to find your recently published book in an unexpected place. Good reading for travelers from all walks of life!
Oh my goodness - flight delayed and wandering around the Nashville airport and noticed this biggest airport bookstore I’ve ever seen @ParnassusBooks1 - and they have my book - so I signed it. The science section is legit!
