Reviews

[Juhasz's and Kerr's] conversational model-by definition friendly, curious, and inviting, with an interest in accessibility and transparency-distinguishes [We Are Having This Conversation Now] from traditional academic writing and media criticism. Here, history-teaching and -learning is rooted in an oral history framework: that we learn what happened to communities from the people who constitute them. -- Svetlana Kitto * Bomb *
