Book Reviews 

Pyrenae encourages the publication of book reviews which are published in the second volume of the year. The objective is to promote the diffusion of new research, comment on the history of particular research themes and scientific debate.

Prospective authors and editorials who wish to have their book reviewed or publish an advert should contact the Editors of Pyrenae. Two copies of the work should be sent addressed to Pyrenae (cf. the postal contact address): one example for the reviewer and one for the Library of the Facultat de Geografia i Història of the Universitat de Barcelona.

We recommend that a colour photograph of the book cover be sent so it can be published on the web site of Pyrenae.

Reviews published in Pyrenae are identified with a DOI.
