Faculty author Weisman will sign book Sept. 28

Alan Weisman, associate professor of journalism, will speak and sign copies of his book The World Without Us at noon Friday, Sept. 28, at the UA Bookstore. The event is free and open to the public.

The book has been on The New York Times bestseller list for hardcover nonfiction since late July and is listed among Amazon.com's bestsellers.

In the book, Weisman, who teaches in the international journalism program at the UA, looks at how the planet would respond if humans suddenly disappeared. Read what others are saying about the book here.
