Exploring U2: Is this rock 'n' roll?

Take a look at the cover, table of contents and general information for Exploring U2: Is This Rock 'n' Roll?, the book that grew out of the 2009 U2 academic conference. I can vouch for the excellence of several of the papers that made it in, and I am very excited about seeing a hard copy this fall!

[edit: We've been asked to submit an alphabtical list of songs cited in our chapters, and I was kind of amazed to discover that I cite 29 songs in mine, to wit: "40", Bad, Beautiful Day, Bullet the Blue Sky, Elevation, The Fly, Kite, Love Is Blindness, Mothers of the Disappeared, Mysterious Ways, New Year's Day, One, Out of Control, Please, Pride, Running to Standstill, Satellite of Love, A Sort of Homecoming, Stuck in a Moment, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Trying to Throw Your Arms Around the World, Unknown Caller, Vertigo, Walk On, What's Going On, When Will I See You Again, Where the Streets Have No Name, With or Without You, Yahweh. Geez, think you cited enough songs there?]
