[Sfts-faculty] Fwd: Soliciting proposals for the Imagination, Annotated book series

[andré carrington]

Colleagues,

One of our collaborators in the What If Consortium workshops has sent along
this book series description and a solicitation for editors. It looks like
an interesting project.

Dear André,



I have enjoyed sharing some screen time with you through the What If
symposia!



Dave Guston and I are launching a new book series with the MIT Press titled
Imagination, Annotated (description attached). We are contacting a small
group of colleagues in the hopes that  you might give us feedback on the
framing of the series as well as suggest potential editors for books in the
series. If you know someone, or a small team of people, who might be ideal
for this, please let us know or put us in touch directly so we can discuss
the series with them. We especially welcome prospective editors who will
bring diversity, equity, and inclusion perspectives to historical works of
science fiction, as well as individual or small teams of editors who bring
interdisciplinary backgrounds and approaches to these works.



Thanks for any ideas you might share,

Ed
