Our future banned books
We stand with our publishing and library colleagues in support of the freedom to read, and believe that access to great, high-quality, scientifically informed books is a cornerstone of understanding. We present this tongue-in-cheek list of “future banned books” to highlight works we are tremendously proud to publish, and to speak out against the scourge of book bans in this country.
Voidopolis
What is a book? Kat Mustatea, a transmedia playwright, artist, and author, seeks to grapple with that question with her recent book, Voidopolis. Read our interview with Mustatea about the inspiration for her hybrid digital artistic and literary project which retells Dante’s Inferno as if it were set in pandemic-ravaged New York City.
Your Halloween reading list
It’s time to break out your creepiest reads. This year we’re celebrating spooky season by dipping into an introduction into the world of the paranormal, a re-reading of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, a 1923 novel in our Radium Age series set in a world on the brink of collapse, and more.

Spotlight: The Platform Studies
The Platform Studies book series investigates the foundations of digital media—the computing systems, both hardware and software, that developers and users depend upon for artistic, literary, and gaming development. Books in the series certainly vary in their approaches, but they all also share certain features: A focus on a single platform or a closely related family of platforms; technical rigor and in-depth investigation of how computing technologies work; and an awareness of and discussion of how computing platforms exist in a context of culture and society.
Series editor: Nick Monfort and Ian Bogost
