The Women’s Review of Books, which ceased publication last December due to dwindling subscribers and soaring debt, will resume publication in January, thanks to the addition of a new publishing partner. As a Boston Globe story by David Mehegan reports, the magazine will return as a bimonthly, rather than a monthly, but with the same editor, Amy Hoffman, and it will still be associated with Wellesley College. But now Wellesley will co- sponsor the publication along with Old City Publishing, previously known mostly for publishing scientific journals. Says Old City owner Ian Mellanby, “I have no doubt that it can be profitable. It has a good editor, a good product, and a good reputation. We would like not just to rebuild it but perhaps have an international perspective . . . and take it to another level.” Says Hoffman, “I’m thrilled, just incredibly pleased. We’re a place where people can have thoughtful, substantial discussions on feminist thinking and research.”
