Dear Colleagues
Please find attached a copy of the conference booklet for the EWODOR symposium. I recognise that it is often regarded as inappropriate to send attachments to listservs but I can assure you that I have checked this iten thoroughly for virus and it is fine.
I understand there may be a limited number of places left if you have forgotten to book already. It certainly looks like a really exciting programme for academics and practitioners alike. The following is a copy of the final programme:
