In this episode, Dave Nelson talks about publishing academic books. He discusses the process of publishing a book, gives tips for turning a dissertation into a published book, and offers ideas on how to write better. Dave is an expert in these things, having served as an acquisitions editor at Baker Academic for years, before becoming the Director of Baylor University Press.

Dave joined us on the podcast before to discuss academic conferences from a publisher's perspective. He offered some ideas about how scholars can connect with publishers at conferences like AAR/SBL. You can listen to that episode here.
