Texts by faculty
Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences

College faculty have written textbooks used in classrooms both in the U.S. and abroad, on subjects ranging from campaign finance reform to the roots of Western traditional music and the concepts underlying the study of physics. Below is a sampling of such scholarly efforts – some faculty have written the introductions to major anthologies, while others have been important contributors to classroom texts. The research and writing of these teachers and scholars have enriched not only their fields, but the knowledge that society needs to carry universities – and students – into the future.
