Nineteen faculty members from the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s departments of Anthropology, Biology, Communication Studies, Computer Science, English, History, Philosophy, Political Science and Public Administration, and Psychology wrote or edited 17 books in 2024. The subjects ranged from medical ethics to capitalism in modern France to teaching public administration using pop culture.
UAB’s College of Arts and Sciences continued its long-standing tradition of celebrating all of its faculty authors from the previous year at an event titled “One for the Books” at the Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts. This year’s celebration took place on April 21, 2025, with approximately 60 faculty and staff members in attendance.
