Books for Understanding is a free, easy-to-use resource to help you find books on current events. New bibliographies are compiled when a major news story breaks or public debate heats up. The program highlights one of the highest values of university presses: to publish top research and scholarship in all fields regardless of immediate commercial potential.Often the most complete and illuminating background research and knowledge for a breaking news story is only available in scholarly books from presses committed to the public interest.
