      Academic publishing has to wash its face and illicit copies undermine an already precarious business model. Not every artisan that suffers from IP theft is a millionaire 🤷‍♂️

      The overhead from digital publishing is vastly different than low-volume print. Further, you're only engaging the profit issue, not the issue of knowledge, accessibility, and cost. You're refusing to address the balance at all. Copyright fetishism is just bloody weird.

      I am really just saying but eBooks cost nearly as much to produce as a print version. Fixed costs all there. Print is a tiny bit. I know. It is nerdy...

      So we should limit availability to wealthy or connected individuals like the insufferable one that just liked your tweet? If academia has no place for disabled or poor scholars, then there's a bigger problem than profitability of university presses.

      Then don't have books. Put your work up on http://Academia.edu . or your own website. But don't hate a publisher for needing to cover their costs.

      Precisely what field do you think I could write in without using previously published books? Are you completely divorced from the reality I and others experience? We can't succeed without access. We can't get access without succeeding.

      And we can't publish books unless we cover our costs. I'm really sorry. I know I sound horrible. But I just don't know how to square this circle. We do try so hard to make everything available on JSTOR. Bit I know it's not available to everyone.

      I don’t understand why you think that it was at all appropriate to come into a grad student’s mentions to shame him over what is clearly a wider issue that isn’t his lie any other grad student’s to solve.

      You apologized to Chris but we’re more than happy to let others come and attack him over this. You complain about being pilloried and you wonder why?

      Academic books are inaccessible to many, especially right now. If you think there is a problem there then you should be advocating for unis to be acquiring access rather than this. This has gone on for over a day.

      But given the wide response to this, you should reconsider your position and your approach.

          Especially given you are responding to a bunch of disabled or neurodivergent PhD students and independent researchers who already have accessibility problems. But my question is did you get all high and mighty to the tenured people saying they have PDFs to give away?

          Also you followed me for months and I requested PDFs as well, and you didn’t get rude at me. Is it just Boydell then that you think no one should have PDFs of?

          @AdmiralHip I can't control what others do. I have said how sorry I am to @HalstedMedieval for any hurt caused. I work for a small firm that makes academic works available. We rely on sales to keep us afloat. I don’t quite know what else you expect me to do or say.

          Why has this s* started again? Covid is hard times for PhDs. If you can afford the book, do so. If you can’t, share. If you aren’t in a rush post-Covid, use a library; ask to buy or ILL. Boydell do good books, are small, and widespread sharing threatens their business model. Fin.
