Publicize your new book here?

It is difficult to know which statistics package to believe. Google Analytics says that Logic Matters steadily gets something in the order of 12,000 unique visitors a month, AWStats puts it around 18,000. And both say that the number of visits a month is at least three times as high. The WordPress stats are significantly higher again. It’s really nice to know that I’m not talking to myself!

The costs of hosting, backup, the domain names, etc. are not trivial. But they are only of the order of £200 a year, and since I do get a lot out of keeping Logic Matters going, that’s fine by me. So I’m not inclined to go to the bother of trying to emulate some Well-Known Blogs and seek paid advertising (I doubt that I’m missing out on much, given that the traffic on this site, though substantial, is not in the same league).

However … If you have a new book in mathematical logic or philosophy of maths/philosophy of logic that you would like to publicize at the top of the side bar that appears on most pages — i.e. where the cover image of my Gödel book currently appears –then get in touch (email at the foot of the “About” page). If I like the sound of it, then the deal will be that you send me a free copy of the book, and then you get at least four weeks in the sidebar (cover image linked to publisher’s site or Amazon). I save a bit on book bills, and you — for the cost of postage and one of your free author’s copies — get exposure to a large but very select audience of logic fans. Fair swap?
