Oxford Handbooks provide original essays by leading researchers covering key issues in the humanities and social sciences. The Oxford Handbooks series is unique because each volume offers the original ideas of the leading scholars in each field: in each article, scholars survey the current state of their field and critique the direction of the most recent and relevant debates.

Oxford Handbooks cover a wide variety of study within the humanities and social sciences, including classical studies, economics, law, literature, music, political science, psychology, and religion. The handbooks total 450+, and Hekman Library owns nearly one hundred of these titles.

The Oxford Handbook series is geared toward graduate students and scholars. It provides authoritative perspectives on a multitude of topics, and original ideas about the progress of each field and where research is headed in the future. Check one out at the Hekman Library today!
