Oxford Scholarship Online offers access to over 6,500 texts across 19 subject areas including: Biology, Business and Management, Classical Studies, Economics and Finance, History, Law, Linguistics, Literature, Mathematics, Music, Neuroscience, Philosophy, Physics, Political Science, Psychology, Public Health and Epidemiology, Religion, and Social Work. We will also be adding a new Palliative Care module in November 2011. Due to the diversity of this research resource, we are continuing to put the majority of OUP's scholarly monographs online, as well as in print.
