Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Toyin Falola wins UT Research Award

From what I can see on the personal website of Toyin Falola,he lists only his books,of which he has been producing at least two each year  for about thirty years.

It would also be helpful to those who study his work for him to list his articles.That would enable a more complete assessment of his scholarly trajectory.

The listing of the articles could prove quite tedious but also particularly enlightening for those studying his work.

It is also true that many scholars publish more articles than they do books.Seeing the progression of Falola's article publication in relation to his book output could  assist other scholars reflect on how to bridge the two worlds of article and book publication.Such a bridge could occur in terms of articles acting as pilots for ideas eventually developed in detail in books,or as texts eventually collected into books,among other possibilities.

Thanks

President Bill Powers of the University of Texas Presented the 2010 Career Research Award to Professor Toyin Falola, the first Black scholar to win this award in the history of the University.

The award is given to a faculty "who has maintained superior research programs over many years" A most coveted award, it carries a check in the amount of $10,000 along with other privileges. A citation acknowledges the contributions of his over a hundred books, his influence on the discipline, and his indefatigable energy and prolific output in the last three decades.

Congrats!
