Got some interesting news in the last couple of days. The International Encyclopedia of Human Geography, for which I was Editor-in-Chief, has been awarded a 'CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title 2010' award in the Social and Behavioural Sciences category. There were 7,000+ entrants across all categories. I think this is the first time any of my publications has actually won anything, so I'm happy with that. Of course, all I did was manage the other editors and authors, and edit entries myself, so it was a large team effort - so this is really shared across all 844 contributors. I don't think there's any prize as such, so it's the recognition being shared before anyone asks me for their 844th! Back to a review tomorrow, hopefully.
