Follow up on the Lora Wainwright plagiarism and misconduct case


We will continue to hold Lora Wainwright accountable for her ethical misconduct and document the response of the institutions involved. After media articles (here and here) revealed that Oxford University investigated Lora Wainwright and found her guilty of serious misconduct, MIT Press put a notice on its website indicating that the book is out of print and that revisions are under review.


However, the original book, with the plagiarized content and misrepresentations has not been withdrawn and is still available in libraries.
