Six Books Receive CAHSS Funding For Open Access

We are delighted to announce that six books received funding from the CAHSS fund for gold open access publication in our last financial year.

The CAHSS fund supports the open access publication of books written or edited by University of Edinburgh staff. Books funded are published by EUP in both print and digital formats, and are freely available in their ebook editions to a global audience on publication.

The funding comes from EUP’s cash reserves and speaks to our mission as a University Press to maximise the influence and impact of research in the humanities and social sciences.

The books funded in FY25 are:

• Rousseau’s Politics of Taste by Jared Holley
• New Gaelic Speakers in Nova Scotia and Scotland by Stuart S. Dunmore
• Diverse Slaveries by Jason Douglas Porter
• Planetary Politics by Lucy Benjamin
• The Scottish State and the Experience of Government, c. 1560-1707 edited by Martha McGill and Alasdair Raffe
• Slavery and Honour in the Ancient Greek World edited by David Lewis, Mirko Canevaro and Douglas Cairns
