Like Ethan, I also like to gripe about publishing outside the blogosphere. This past summer I penned a review essay about two books about Harvard and the Summers debacle; though I haven’t seen the hard copy yet, I was led to believe that it fronted the Jerusalem Post’s Books section nearly two weeks ago. I didn’t link to the piece earlier a) because I actually didn’t know when the review was coming out — I had submitted it to my editor a few months ago and I only found out about its publication from a friend in Tel Aviv who read it; and b) because of the long lag time, it was published with a few out of date references that had to be changed (at least in the on-line version) and were changed just the other day. While there were some other edits that happened w/o my knowledge, I can’t make more excuses: it still — in the main — bears a passing resemblance to what I submitted… Enjoy.
