This book, Finding Common Ground: Selected Newspaper Columns of lan Boxill, 1993-2000, literally re-presents the best articles written by lan over a period of seven years (March 1993 to August 2000) on the opinion page of the Daily Gleaner in Jamaica. The book seeks - more so than the individual articles themselves, which were written with the general public in mind - to help graduates across the Caribbean region fulfil that obligation... to become habitual readers (and writers).
