January ~ February 2009
Congratulations to Jacqui Corcoran for her five new book chapters and Liz Cramer's most recent examples of productivity! Take note of the impressive number of faculty-doctoral alumni publications and other important collaborations. Kia J. Bentley's chapter in the new encyclopedia, for example, is with Chris Kogut, one of our MSW grads who is now a chief resident in psychiatry at MCV. Of course, we are excited that Rosemary Farmer's book on neuroscience is now out, as is Ellen Netting & Mary Katherine O'Connor's new edition of Organization practice. Note, too, the School is well represented among authors in the new edition of Social workers' desk reference (2009, Oxford), some announced here, and some in previous publication announcements.
