More than 6 years in the making, some interdisciplinary struggle, and now finally almost out #openaccess @OxUniPress
It's just become a bit more real. So so grateful to many friends who've offered thoughts, encouragement and help over the many years this has been in the making. @tobias_blanke #algorithms #knowledge #power #othering

Well deserved praise. I also really enjoyed reading this. A book that shows what can be done and how it can be done with #digitalmethods.
There have been many amazing books in 2021, but this is my highlight. It brings together #methods of data analysis and racial #critique to trace the racial redline in US fiction. I've learnt so much #digitalmethods
