Behind the Books: A Podcast From IVP AcademicAuthor: InterVarsity Press
It may seem easy to judge a book by its cover, but behind every book stands many, many peoplenot only authors, but also editors, designers, marketers, and salespeople, among others. On Behind the Books: A Podcast from IVP Academic, we take the posture of curious learners to explore the humanity behind and within the publishing process, enjoying the intellectual and faith journeys that have brought us to this one-of-a-kind calling.In our first season of the Behind the Books podcast, we focus on a milestone publication recently released, the second edition of The Dictionary of Paul and His Letters, what we affectionately call the DPL2. We think the best way to do that is to hand the mic (literally!) to the three volume editors: the biblical scholars Scot McKnight, Lynn Cohick, and Nijay Gupta. For eleven episodes, theyll take us on a deep dive into the DPL2 with interviews and conversation with contributors, to share insights from the planning, research, writing, and editing process, and (in the season finale) to take a look back at the creation of the first edition of the DPL thirty years ago.
