dissertation publishing

[Shanley E. M. Allen]

Note that several recent books in the Benjamins "Language Acquisition and
Language Disorders" series are actually revised dissertations, including at
least those by Juffs, Allen, and Brinkmann (the ones that I know off the
top of my head).  As a linguist, I doubt that my "dissertation-book" will
count very much for tenure (though this depends on the university).
However, I think it's good to have in libraries, and this format is much
more accessible for people than trying to get a copy of my dissertation,
even though the price is a bit steep (about USD 75).

Best,
Shanley Allen.
