Hi Folks,
I'm pleased to share the news that another new book has been added to the WAC Clearinghouse (https://wac.colostate.edu<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://wac.colostate.edu/__;!!DZ3fjg!4Q0KPPAmP8XeW4KJHlRANtaRyMeGaWLppYlLUvP8e5QcLJYofzNfBkvzSeHtPHdF5BTbjZVE3X0rvzN5W0xKu6F9-4XvTjg8_1ix$>). This book appears in the CCCC Studies in Writing and Rhetoric book series. In partnership with the Clearinghouse, CCCC is making selected books from the series available in open-access formats.
[Cover]Transnational Assemblages: Social Justice and Crisis Communication during Disaster
By Sweta Baniya
This book recognizes local knowledge and marginalized perspectives during disasters to create opportunities for tackling social injustices in post-disaster situations. With grounded case studies of the 2015 Nepal earthquake and 2017 Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, Baniya showcases how locals in marginalized and colonized spaces overcome disaster-created complexities via coalitional and transnational engagements. Ultimately, this project illustrates how technical communicators can perform transdisciplinary disaster management research to minimize the impacts of catastrophic disasters affecting the world's most vulnerable populations.
You can find the book in PDF and ePub editions at https://wac.colostate.edu/books/swr/assemblages/.  A low-cost print edition is now available for pre-order from NCTE at https://my.ncte.org/s/product-details?id=a1BPo000001crabMAA. Thanks to Sweta for her work on the book and for her decision to share it with us as an open-access publication. Thanks as well to the anonymous peer reviewers who contributed to its development. And thanks to the staff at NCTE, especially Kurt Austin, for their efforts to make this book available to the writing studies community.
All the best,
Mike
