Following on from the successful volume Dematiaceous Hyphomycetes comes More Dematiaceous Hyphomycetes - once again delving into the biology, pathology and control of Dematiaceous Hyphomycetes. It includes descriptions and figures of a further 732 species together with keys, a host index, a glossary of terms, and a comprehensive index.

This book is about many common and some less common hyphomycete fungi with dark conidia or conidiophores. It aims to make their identification easier and in particular enable students and amateur mycologists, as well as professionals, who do not have direct access to a large herbarium, to name a number of their own collections and isolates to species level. This group of fungi is important as it includes many pathogens of plants and animals, many species which cause spoilage of food and deterioration of paper, plastics, textiles etc, and others which are used in various industrial processes.

Discourses of Slavery and Abolition brings together for the first time the most important strands of current thinking on the relationship between slavery and categories of writing, oratory and visual culture in the 'long' Eighteenth Century. The book begins by examining writing about slavery and race by both philosophers and by authors such as Aphra Behn. It considers self representation in the works of Ignatius Sancho, Olaudah Equiano, James Williams and Mary Prince. The final section reads literary and cultural texts associated with the abolition movements of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries, moving beyond traditional accounts of the documents of that movement to show the importance of religious writing, children's literature, and the relationship between art and abolition.
