Focusing on contentious politics and constructive placemaking, Kimberley Kinder shows that these shops do much more than sell political literature. If you want to understand how movements use bricks, mortar, and books to build their own worlds and spread their ideas--even in the twenty-first century--you should read this book. --Joshua Clark Davis, University of Baltimore The Radical Bookstore is a sorely needed corrective to the conventional story of retail bookselling. The focus on print-based movement spaces yields an absorbing narrative in which social justice-oriented bookstores emerge as critical sites for negotiating belonging, enacting care, and fostering equity. Kimberley Kinder shows us that another print culture, divested of the overwhelming demands of consumer capitalism, is indeed possible. --Ted Striphas, University of Colorado, Boulder* Author InformationKimberley Kinder is associate professor of urban and regional planning at the University of Michigan.
