Welcome to Yale Books Unbound 1 This project is part of the Institute for the Future of the Book's CommentPress experiment. 2 It's a way of sharing books and the ideas within them, as well as facilitating some of our works in progress. 3 Yale University Press is pleased to participate in this initiative since we see it as a very promising way of fulfilling our main objective of disseminating art and knowledge to the widest possible audience and facilitating on-going and all-important dialogues about ideas and issues that shape our world. 4 Up until now, very few book publishers have leveraged new technologies to add any additional value beyond basic Search functionality to their content. We agree with the Institute for the Future of the Book that a broad rethinking of books-and particularly scholarly monographs-needs to take place.

"Does listening to something, perhaps once, perhaps more than once, perhaps over and over again, mean that it is learned in a way that is useful to the student and that they can retrieve and re-use in an appropriate context at a later date? It is a proposition that seems to conflict with the situated learning theories of researchers like Brown, Collins and Duguid (1989), which assert that learning always lies in the interactions between people rather than in the content itself or in the minds of the individual learners. The general premise that listening is often more engaging than the written word and that diction, intonation and inflection add meaning might be acceptable at face value, but as Hargis and Wilson (2005: 6) point out, 'there are currently no examples which clearly indicate proven foundational pedagogical uses and outcomes for podcasts.'. Though the technology is quite recent, it may tend to lead teachers towards outmoded, didactic approaches to delivery rather than the constructivist, collaborative activities recommended by more recent learning theorists."
