The starting point of the book is that flying is only one means of scholarly communication among many, and that the state of the planet now obliges us to shift to other means. How can the academic-as-globetrotter become a thing of the past? The chapters in this book respond to this call in three steps. It documents the \u003ci\u003econsequences\u003c\/i\u003e of academic flying, it investigates the issue of \u003ci\u003ewhy academics fly\u003c\/i\u003e, and it begins an effort to think through \u003ci\u003ewhat can replace flying, and how\u003c\/i\u003e. Finally, it confronts scholars and scientists, students, activists, research funders, university administrators, and others, with a call to translate this research into action.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-12-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789811649103\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-981-16-4911-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210.0cm x148.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 365.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44677000003724,"sku":"9.78981E+12","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789811649103.jpg?v=1760463243","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789811649103","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
