I’m John Soares. My CV provides the usual info you’d expect, and also many of the 300+ supplements and ancillaries I’ve written for college/higher education textbooks.
Which means this is a long CV/resume. It starts with the basics and then lists most test banks, instructor’s manuals, lecture outlines, and art-split directions I’ve done in these disciplines:
- Political Science
- History
- Geography
- Environmental Science
- Earth Sciences
- Biological Sciences
It ends with my other publications, research experience, and honors and awards.
