BEAUGRANDE NEW INTRO GRATIS

[Lutfi M Hussein]

Dear Robert,

This generous act is very welcome and I personally
appreciate it.

While I am currently living in the US (where there is
abundance of books and Internet access is not a
problem), I am still a graduate student who's been
having difficulty finding and obtaining scholarly
sources including ones that are much needed in
(critical) discourse analysis.

I may not be familiar with the kinds of political and
economic pressures that scholars may have from
publishers (or the academic establishment in general),
but I sure hope that others will follow suit. This is
such an important issue, and I strongly support it!

Best wishes, Lutfi
