Dr Susan Francis

I am interested in commissioning textbooks (undergraduate and graduate), monographs, edited volumes, professional references/handbooks and Elements series in all areas of Earth and environmental science, but particularly in geophysics, structural geology, petroleum/basin geology, sedimentology, mining geoscience, environmental and geotechnical engineering, geomorphology, hydrology, atmospheric/space physics and oceanography.

I am especially keen to receive proposals on multidisciplinary and cross-cutting topics where I believe high-quality book publications can play a critical role in breaking down silos and facilitating cross-fertilisation of ideas and methods between researchers from diverse fields.

I also have a keen interest in textbook publishing and developing our textbook program to meet the evolving needs of students and professors, especially with interactive e-learning materials.
