10 December 2018: New Author Database

We have created an author database and are incorporating it into the textbook. New features are: search all topics by an author, search all authors at an institution, click on author link to get author information, chapter pages and author page will automatically be updated as topics are updated, easier for us to track authors working on a topic. Initially we will add 250+ authors to the database as well as their institutions, which should be done by the end of December. We will then have to merge the author database with the existing 7500+ topics, one topic at a time, which may not be completed until March. We will keep you advised.
