"Representing disciplines across the humanities and social and natural sciences ... the contributors acknowledge the importance of scholarly norms and discuss tensions between compliance and what writers want to say, how they want to say it, audience expectations, and intended outcomes. In addition, the authors explain how they challenge these norms and call for legitimate space to successfully convey the message. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above." (D. Truty, Choice, Vol. 54 (3), November, 2016) "This book offers ways to move onward and forward, into the future of academic writing, of writing and thinking in general, and of the kind of work we aim to do as politically engaged intellectuals, scholars, and writers. ... While it is a book about academic writing, it is also very much an academic book and an example of scholarship at its best: it is politically engaged, it inspires, and it calls for further inquiry." (Maria Stehle, Women in German, 2016)
