Academic Superstar

The Guardian celebrated NZ-based academic weblog Arts & Letters Daily‘s 100 millionth hit by profiling its founder, Canterbury University’s Denis Dutton. Quoted is Robert Fulford, a columnist with Canada’s National Post: “The idea of Christchurch, NZ, as the thought-control centre of the universe has both charm and originality.” Dutton was recently named one of “the most influential media personalities in the world” by Time magazine.
