Debates in the Digital Humanities brings together leading figures in  
the field to explore its theories, methods, and practices and to  
clarify its multiple possibilities and tensions. Together, the essays? 
which will be published later as an ongoing, open-access website? 
suggest that the digital humanities is uniquely positioned to  
contribute to the revival of the humanities and academic life.

PRAISE FOR DEBATES IN THE DIGITAL HUMANITIES:
"Is there such a thing as ?digital? humanities? From statistical  
crunches of texts to new forms of online collaboration and peer  
review, it?s clear something is happening. This book is an excellent  
primer on the arguments over just how much is changing?and how much  
more ought to?in the way scholars study the humanities." ?Clive  
Thompson, columnist for Wired and contributing writer for the New York  
Times Magazine
