<p class="xxxmsonormal"><span style="color:#212529">Edited by Ashley J. Holmes and Elise Verzosa Hurley</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxmsonormal"><span style="color:#212529">The contributors to <i>Learning from the Mess: Method/ological Praxis in Rhetoric and Writing Studies</i> argue that there’s much to be learned from the messiness of research contexts. In so doing, they highlight
the value of revisiting and reflecting on research methods and methodologies with two primary goals in mind: to shed light on the processes commonly elided between research design and publication and to make explicit that the method/ologies we use in our research
require praxis. <i>Learning from the Mess</i> features ten chapters that challenge readers to rethink and reflect on their own method/ological choices in the past and to envision new possibilities for future research designs. Each contributor connects their
reflections to one or more paired reading(s) they had previously published.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxmsonormal">You can find the book at <a href="https://wac.colostate.edu/books/perspectives/mess/">
https://wac.colostate.edu/books/perspectives/mess/</a>. <span lang="EN">This book, like other books published by the Clearinghouse, will be available in a print edition from University Press of Colorado in the coming months. Thanks to
</span>Ashley and Elise for their <span lang="EN">work on the book and for their decision to share it with us as an open-access publication. Thanks as well to the anonymous peer reviewers who contributed to its development. </span>All the best,<o:p></o:p></p>
