	Taylor and Francis&nbsp;publish hundreds of journals and thousands of new books each year, from offices all over the world. Every month, a selection of books from Routledge, Psychology Press, Focal Press, and Informa Law are picked as part of our <a href="http://www.routledge.com/books/books_of_the_month/"><strong>Books of the Month</strong></a> campaign.</p>
<p>
	Jeremy North, Managing Director of Routledge Books, says: &quot;The <a href="http://www.routledge.com/books/books_of_the_month/"><strong>Books of the Month </strong></a>selection is individual and quirky. The books are chosen to display the wonderful range of our publishing; to highlight interesting design and production challenges; and to reflect recent acquisitions. Or just because they catch the eye in some way.&quot;<br />

	Chokri Belaid, 48, leader of the Unified Democratic Nationalist party, was shot three times in the head and chest by a man who fled on a motorcycle on Wednesday morning as he left his home in Tunis. He died in hospital shortly afterwards. Mr Belaid had criticised Islamist violence, accusing the ruling party, al-Nahda, and its leader, Rachid Ghannouchi, of sympathising with the perpetrators. <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/feb/06/tunisian-politician-shot-dead">Read the article here.</a></p>

	Discourse (both popular and academic) surrounding Turkey has leaned toward the reductionist and the de-contextualized, framing Turkish media, culture and politics in polarized terms such as East vs. West, Modern vs. Traditional or Muslim vs. Christian.</p>
<p>
	Since 2000, there has been a considerable effort in Turkish cinema to come to terms with the military&rsquo;s intervention in politics and subsequent national trauma. It has resulted in an outpouring of cinematic texts. Texts such as <strong><em>Women and Turkish Cinema, The Routledge Dictionary of Turkish Cinema </em></strong>and <strong><em>Understanding Media and Culture in Turkey </em></strong>will be invaluable resources for students and scholars of Film Studies, Gender Studies and Middle East Studies, amongst others.<br />
