About This Site

Version 1.0 of An Anthropocene Primer is hosted by the IUPUI Arts and Humanities Institute as an open access book. In collaboration with Indiana University Press, we are inviting the public to participate in an open peer review of the volume started on October 23, 2017 . We will revise the primer in response to the comments and intend to publish the text as an open access book as well as a hard copy volume in 2021.
