The University of California Press is holding their annual book sale. There are some awesome books offered for really cheap. The range of selection is pretty impressive as well, everything from anthropology to wine and viticulture. Here’s a round up of books I want to buy.
- Frans de Waal’s “My Family Album: Thirty Years of Primate Photography” $14.95 hardcover on sale.
- Frans de Waal and Frans Lanting’s “Bonobo: The Forgotten Ape“$19.95 paperback on sale.
- Goodman, Alan Goodman, Deborah Heath, and M. Susan Lindee, editors of “Genetic Nature/Culture: Anthropology and Science beyond the Two-Culture Divide” $8.95 paperback on sale.
- Chris Beard’s “The Hunt for the Dawn Monkey: Unearthing the Origins of Monkeys, Apes, and Humans” $12.95 hardcover on sale & $9.95 paperback on sale.
- Nina Jablonski’s “Skin: A Natural History” $16.95 hardcover on sale.
- Jonathan Marks’ “What It Means to Be 98% Chimpanzee: Apes, People, and Their Genes“$17.95 hardcover on sale & $9.95 paperback on sale.
- Eugenie Scott’s “Evolution vs. Creationism: An Introduction” $9.95 paperback on sale.

- Nina Jablonski, editor of “The First Americans: The Pleistocene Colonization of the New World” $49.95 hardcover on sale.
The sale ends in well over a month, on October 31st to be exact. But that doesn’t mean you should hold off… because they have a limited stock on the books, so once they sell out, you’re outta luck.

I would like to avail myself of the Mark Twain series produced by the Iowa Center for Textual Studies, published by the University of California Press several years ago. Our library at SUNY-Geneseo, New York has them, but I would like to acquire them for my personal library.
Please advise if they are still available and how I might acquire them if they are.
