About AutoCognition
Decolonising Textbook Cost
Decolonisation has the best of intentions: eradicating the in-built advantages and privileges of western education.
AutoCognition would like to take the first tiny steps to putting that right. The textbook, Managing International Business, is on sale as an affordable ebook (see below as well as Amazon) and the teaching/learning materials are available for free here. I have my day job, I won't starve if the royalities are cut, but if other academics follow this policy then we can put quality textbooks in the hands of students around the world and finally decolonise education!
e-textbook: £8.84/US$8.72
Managing International Business is designed for university students around the world. It is used as a core text at the University of Greenwich and internationally by partner institutions. It is written in an engaging style and regularly updated to include the latest hot topics. Importantly, it is on sale as an affordable ebook (Amazon being one place) and the teaching/learning materials are available for free here. This means that students can buy more textbooks and not resort to the dodginess of the internet!

Out With Time: An Oliver Twist Prequel. Maybe.
There is more to life than textbooks so when other curiosities appear they will be displayed here. This week it is a nice little novel that tells the story of what happened before Oliver Twist came along. Was Mr Bumble so bad? Probably, but this book lets us see why he became what he did. It also argues that the real hero of Oliver Twist was Nancy. Maybe.
Intrigued? You can buy it here.
