Welcome to the Manchester University Press podcast, ‘One Book at a Time’. The idea of the podcast is to encourage people to slow down and consider important social issues and histories, which we think reflects one of the major benefits of reading a university press book; packed full of carefully considered arguments, frontline thinking, and original voices. We hope the podcast offers an experience equivalent to exercising your brain in the open air, rather than the 100-metre mad dash of internet skimming. The podcast’s aim, and name, also speaks to our wider mission of changing the world one book at a time.
