The kind folks at Bloomsbury (the
parent company of the T&T Clark imprint) have recently mentioned
that a paperback
release is forthcoming for my Sacred
Texts and Paradigmatic Revolutions: The Hermeneutical Worlds of the
Qumran Sectarian Manuscripts and the Letter to the Romans.
Slated for this June, the paperback,
at a $29.95 list price, will be a fiscally welcome complement to the
current hardback
($120.00) and PDF
($27.99) formats. The paperback is already available for pre-order on Amazon, currently
at just under the list price.

Bloomsbury presently has the hardback on sale for 10% off and is also making PDFs available at a still more substantially reduced price.
