Opis książki

This collection, aimed at scholars, teachers, and practitioners in technical communication, focuses on the praxis-based connections between technical communication and theoretical movements that have emerged in the past several decades, namely new materialism and posthumanism. It provides a much needed link between contemporary theoretical discussions about new materialisms and posthumanism and the practical, everyday work of technical communicators. The collection insists that where some theoretical perspectives fall flat for practitioners, posthumanism and new materialisms have the potential to enable more effective and comprehensive practices, methodologies, and pedagogies. "Moore and Richards' collection ably brings together theories of posthumanism and praxis, offering readers ways to understand-in practical, clear language, case studies, and pedagogical examples-how the field's turn to granting agency to non-human things impacts not just our ways of understanding the world but our ways of being in the world as teachers and scholars." -Stephanie Vie, University of Central Florida
