Academic Book Week 23rd to 28th April 2018 #AcBookWeek

It is Academic Book Week this week – “a celebration of the diversity, innovation and influence of academic books”. So we thought we would highlight a few of the titles written by our healthcare-based academics here at Keele University.

You’ll find a taste of some books authored by members of staff on display by the Library entrance.
