Reviews

Contributes significantly to equity-based pedagogy and antiracism work in writing studies, as well as analyses of labor and capital as they manifest in universities more broadly and writing centers in particular. The wide-ranging interdisciplinarity places this project in dialogue with research agendas in fields ranging from education to psychology to critical race and gender studies to labor studies. This book will become a staple of writing studies syllabi and writing center libraries. --Naomi Silver, University of Michigan A needed text, with strengths in experiential knowledge, examples of practical application, and a push for more intentional research designs for writing center research. --Wonderful Faison, Langston University This book is needed now more than ever, given the environmental, political, social, and cultural unrest we are all experiencing. Giaimo's attention to wellness and care should be required reading for anyone involved in mentoring and teaching writing. She offers a deep analysis of how we came to this situation and concrete strategies and solutions so that we might care for ourselves, each other, our students, and the future of higher education. --Neal Lerner, Northeastern University
