  • This guidebook, the first of its kind, summarizes the state of the art in the field of epistemic gossip protocols. Gossip protocols are peer-to-peer communication protocols intended to maximize information dissemination while respecting network or transmission constraints. This comprehensive reference begins by presenting classical results on gossip protocols from networks and combinatorics from the 1970s and progresses through results in distributed computing up to the work on epistemic distributed gossip protocols of the past decade. In epistemic gossip protocols, agents make information-based choices to speed up information dissemination and allow smarter and more involved forms of distributed communication. Topics covered include various call semantics, reachability of secret distributions, dynamic gossip where secrets and numbers are exchanged, optimality, protocol knowledge, and higher-order epistemic goals. Featuring numerous exercises, this book from a lead researcher is an ideal resource for graduate students and researchers in logic, computer science, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science.

  • Across Africa, power structures from colonial legacies to modern social hierarchies create and sustain exclusion. Exploring the individuals and groups living on the periphery of African society, this book situates Africa's marginalized identities as catalysts for social transformation. Toyin Falola examines a diverse range of identities, including persons with albinism, LGBTQI+ communities, refugees, rural dwellers, and women in seclusion. By analyzing these groups not as passive victims but as active agents of change, the book reveals how their unique perspectives and resistance movements are reshaping the continent's future. Blending sociology, history, and political science, Falola challenges prevailing norms and advocates for a more inclusive, pluralistic Africa. Marginalized Identities in Africa is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of identity, human rights, and social transformation in one of the world's most dynamic regions.

  • In recent years, Queen Victoria (r. 1837–1901) and her world have come into sharper focus. Current scholarship has explored who the queen was and how her subjects saw her, both at home and abroad. We also have a deeper appreciation for Victoria's own role and agency in shaping her reign and constructing her self-image. This volume builds upon these developments and offers nuanced and historically grounded perspectives on the Victorian monarchy. The Cambridge Companion to Queen Victoria features the work of leading scholars across disciplines including literature, history, religion, women's studies and art history. Organized into four sections, the volume presents accessible and innovative scholarship on the queen as a cultural force and political agent, in domestic, international and imperial contexts.

Phrenology in Practice
  • Science as Self-Knowledge in the Nineteenth Century
  • Carla Bittel

  • Phrenology – a now dismissed and discredited science – was a popular but contested knowledge system in the nineteenth century. Its promoters touted its benefits, claiming that measuring and analyzing protrusions on the skull could solve life's most vexing personal questions: Who am I? Who should I marry? How should I raise my children? How do I treat my illness? How do I comprehend death? Delving into a rich archive of written and material sources, Carla Bittel uncovers the letters, diaries, marginalia, personal artifacts, and mapped heads which show phrenology was not merely directive but also interactive. Bittel argues that everyday users perpetuated phrenology as they adopted, adapted, and resisted it in their pursuit of self-knowledge. She examines how users tried to naturalize individual traits and generalize about the mental and physical qualities attributed to sex and race, revealing disconcerting implications for our modern fixation with knowing and improving ourselves.

The Annals of Tacitus: Book 16
  • Edited by Salvador Bartera

    31 January 2027
  • This is the first scholarly commentary in English on Annals 16 in over a century. It offers a literary, historical and linguistic analysis of one of the most gripping books of the work, which includes, among other things, the narratives of Bassus' treasure trove, Poppaea's death, Petronius' suicide, and Thrasea Paetus' demise, at which point the text breaks off. The detailed commentary pays particular attention to Tacitus' narrative technique and idiosyncratic language, revealing his precise narrative strategy, which becomes evident when compared to the other sources of Nero's principate, such as Suetonius and Cassius Dio. The edition will be invaluable for scholars and postgraduate students who work on Tacitus, as well as those interested in early imperial historiography and history more broadly, especially of the Julio-Claudian period.

Schoenberg's Tonal Music
  • Depictive Text Painting and the Birth of the 'Musical Idea'
  • Jack Boss
  • Coming soon

    31 January 2027
  • Jack Boss's third book on the most famous member of the 'second Viennese School', this work offers an intriguing revisionist history of Schoenberg's early music. It provides close readings of six pieces from Op. 1 to Op. 9, illustrated by detailed motivic analyses as well as Schenkerian graphs, to show how tonality and motive work together to project the 'musical idea,' and how Schoenberg's tonal style gradually became more dissonant, leading to atonality. Boss's earlier books argued that the atonal and twelve-tone works were part of a consistent development tied together by the expression of a common narrative-the conflict, elaboration, and resolution of what Schoenberg himself called the 'idea.' This book completes the circle by showing that the early, tonal works also project musical idea narratives. It justifies Schoenberg's preference for setting music to text early in his career, by showing how his chosen texts helped shape these narratives of conflict and resolution.

Politics, Grievances, and Protest
  • Student Movements in Latin America's Southern Cone

  • Politics, Grievances, and Protest draws on one hundred interviews and forty years of media coverage to provide a cross-national analysis of student mobilization in Latin America's Southern Cone. The book explains why student protests increased in Chile starting in the 2000s, while decreasing in neighboring Argentina and Uruguay. Its findings show that when democracies persistently ignore social demands, they may indirectly foster protest growth. In such contexts, the absence of meaningful change fuels anti-establishment grievances, encourages social movement innovation, and facilitates processes of radicalization that can spread widely. In contrast, state responsiveness often produces the opposite effect. These findings challenge long-standing theories that link relatively closed political systems and movement radicalization to decreased mobilization and suggest that grievances play a central role in shaping variation in protest activity. This is a Flip it Open title and may be available open access on Cambridge Core.

The Development of Military History in Britain
  • Writing and Studying War, 1815–1914
  • Adam Dighton

  • How and why did military history emerge, expand and diversify in Britain between 1815 and 1914? Through an exploration of army educational material, university syllabuses and popular history for the reading public, Adam Dighton provides the first comprehensive account of military history's appearance as a historical genre in Britain. By considering the subject's development as it was understood by contemporary readers, historians and publishers, he challenges existing descriptions of the nature, scope and theoretical complexity of nineteenth-century historical writing. He shows how military history came to play a crucial role in officer education and examines the extent to which the writing of prominent military thinkers, such as Jomini and Clausewitz, influenced how the subject was studied. He also explores the ways military history portrayed warfare, the British Army and empire to the reading public, as well as how it was employed to further the ends of imperial rule.

Nearly Invariant Subspaces and their Applications
  • Jonathan R. Partington
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:

    31 December 2026
  • This book offers a comprehensive introduction to nearly invariant subspaces, a subject of active contemporary research within functional analysis. Written for graduate students in mathematical analysis and suitable as a reference for experienced researchers, the book surveys the historical development of nearly invariant subspaces from their origins in the study of kernels of Toeplitz operators and invariant subspaces of shift operators. It presents recent advances, including applications to the invariant subspace problem, to truncated Toeplitz operators, and to strongly continuous semigroups of operators. Although mostly concerned with operators on Hardy spaces, the book includes a discussion of the subject in the context of Bergman and Dirichlet spaces too. The book begins with a chapter recalling basic results in analysis and function theory, and each chapter contains a selection of accessible exercises to supplement the text.

Human Rights for the Data Society
  • Big Tech, the UN and the Datafication of Rights

  • In the 2010s, the United Nations embarked on a series of projects to embrace and respond to digital data technologies as part of its human rights agenda. Human rights for the Data Society argues that these efforts produced a world in which the biggest technology corporations and their data technologies are widely accepted as indispensable to the international human rights project: the data society. The UN did this through a series of technical projects that produce 'datafied' forms of human rights, whereby core concepts and practices of rights are understood by reference to or performed through digital data technologies, and where the human of human rights recedes into the data. Thus, when human rights practitioners – at the UN and beyond – use datafied forms of human rights, they play a significant role in making the data society possible. By the same token, they also play a significant role in foreclosing alternative possibilities – of worlds in which human rights and digital data technologies might be imagined differently.

The Cambridge Introduction to Phillis Wheatley Peters

  • In 1773 Phillis Wheatley Peters became the first person of African descent to publish a book, when she was barely twenty years old, and still enslaved. Her book made her the earliest international celebrity of African descent, just a dozen years after she had been brought from Africa to America. She became the unofficial poet laureate of the American Revolution, only to die in poverty and relative obscurity in 1784. Recent biographical discoveries related to John Peters and Phillis Wheatley's marriage to him in 1778 have led to significant reassessments of her life and character. As the Cambridge Introduction to Phillis Wheatley Peters demonstrates, she has subsequently become recognized as a pioneer of American and African American literature. Her standing as a transnational literary figure is increasingly appreciated as criticism of her writings has become more sophisticated.

  • Theoretical research sometimes resembles panning for gold: the first to 'discover' a given subject can take their pick of any bold simplifying assumptions and mine all the good nuggets before the rest of us join in. Still, some beautiful exact results may lie just below the surface. Every now and then, they are uncovered through mathematical tours de force. Short of extraordinary mathematical skills, there is, fortunately, a third way towards successful analytical investigations: Asymptotics – the craft of treating limiting cases. This book is addressed to scientists and engineers from Masters level up who want to enrich their numerical investigations with analytical results. It provides strategies for obtaining approximate results when parameters become small or large. Built round a large number of examples, it demonstrates how the techniques apply to a variety of problems, by considering applications from areas as diverse as quantum mechanics, elasticity, electromagnetism and population dynamics.
