Digital technologies are increasingly important to arts and humanities research, expanding the horizons of research methods in all aspects of data capture, investigation, analysis, modelling, presentation and dissemination. This important series covers a wide range of disciplines with each volume focusing on a particular field, identifying the ways in which technology impacts on specific subjects. The series provides an authoritative reflection of the 'state of the art' in the application of computing and technology. Each book is critical reading for experts in digital humanities and technology issues, and will also be of wider interest to all scholars working in humanities and arts research.

For the current nine titles in the series and call for additional proposals, see http://www.ashgate.com/digitalresearch .
