2012 Guggenheim Fellows

We are pleased to announce that several MIT Press and Semiotext(e) authors and editors have been named Guggenheim Fellows for 2012. The John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation website states, "Often characterized as 'midcareer' awards, Guggenheim Fellowships are intended for men and women who have already demonstrated exceptional capacity for productive scholarship or exceptional creative ability in the arts." The MIT Press 2012 Guggenheim Fellows are as follows:

John Bowen, author of Blaming Islam;

Susan Landau, author of Surveillance or Security?: The Risks Posed by New Wiretapping Technologies and (with Whitfield Diffie) of Privacy on the Line: The Politics of Wiretapping and Encryption;
