Reviews

'The theme of this volume is collaboration and the application of computing tools for research and teaching in the humanities. This collection of 14 papers provides a unique insight into the reception of technology in the humanities over the past decade and highlights the contribution made by Harold Short in his work at King’s College London.' Online Information Review 'All the chapters are devoted to interesting challenges, such as authorship issues, usage of standards, crowd sourcing the humanities, and mark-up of texts.'
