Concerning the attractiveness of the bass player from the Pogues (1983-1986) (Donde, J; Turner, J)
Race, gender and barriers to entry: strip club policy and pricing in Portland 2004-2009 (Donde, J)
Bitter harvest: a study of disproportionate hangovers (Donde, J; Turner, J)
The Bloomsbury Set: a collection of opinions and facts (Donde, J; Turner J)
Pondering a Jewish Ireland (Donde, J; Turner, J).
