"This book opens vital conversations and makes fascinating theoretical interventions into the 'social justice turn' in technical communication. Anyone in this field with more than a fleeting commitment to social justice must carefully consider Walton, Moore, and Jones insights on intersectionality, coalition, power, and privilege."

Beyond galvanizing the field to more fully embrace the social justice turn, this book accessibly synthesizes, creatively extends, and powerfully demonstrates this turn, offering scholars, teachers, students, and practitioners a valuable sourcebook of concepts and theories, methodologies, examples, and heuristics. Like its authors, this book is fierce in insisting that we account for and collectively redress the ways that we are complicit in the positionality privilege, and power ("3Ps") that shape forms of oppression, while also being generous in the resources and encouragement it provides to do such work.
