Constructing and Reconstructing Gender
Constructing and Reconstructing Gender is an excellent compendium of current research, and will be appealing and useful to those interested in gender issues in a wide variety of disciplines. This book cuts across disciplines and scholarly methods, drawing from many backgrounds, including Communication, Linguistics, English, Business, Law, and Psychology. The interweaving of rhetorical, critical, phenomenological, and statistical methods gives readers a multifaceted analysis of gender. At the same time that this book shows the value of gender research in provoking new currents of thought, it also brings into focus two aspects of gender that are often confused: how gender operates as a cultural category that affects communication behavior, and how communication and language function to create gender categories.
Theoretical and Critical Perspectives on Teacher Change
This volume establishes a dialogue between the theoretical and practical components of teaching, between the barriers that inhibit changes and the factors that help overcome those barriers. It presents theories that are already at the heart of modern educational practice and shows how these theories have been used by teachers and teacher trainers. The dialogue in this book takes place within, and is informed by, a multitude of disciplines including philosophy, communication studies, technology, composition, rhetoric, and education. The authors address the practical issues of their chosen theoretical perspectives and reflect on how those perspectives manifest themselves pedagogically. Each chapter is followed by a brief response that draws on the experiences and expertise of classroom teachers and theoreticians. As such, the dialogue between the theory and practice of change is delineated between the chapter authors and respondents.

Delivery and Mixing in the Subsurface
This volume is meant to provide the practitioner with information on the natural mixing processes occurring in aquifers as well as to describe basic strategies that can be implemented to enhance mixing in particular cases. For example, when it comes to mixing miscible liquids, one can speed up mixing in the formation by manipulating the flow such as through the use of recirculation wells. Furthermore, much of the mixing can be achieved partially within recirculation wells themselves, where contaminated water is admixed with additives, volatile products may be removed through a vapor mass exchanger, etc. Thus, adding mixing wells can significantly increase the performance of the delivery and mixing system and speed up the process of remediation.

Teaching Life Writing
Teaching Life Writing: Theory, Methodology, and Practice combines research in life writing and pedagogy to examine the role of life stories in diverse learning contexts, disciplines, and global settings. While life stories are increasingly integrated into curricula, their incorporation raises the risk of reducing them to mere historical evidence. Recognizing the importance of teaching life stories in a manner that goes beyond a surface understanding, life-writing scholars have been consistently exploring innovative pedagogical practices to engage with these stories in ways that encourage dynamic and nuanced conversations about identity, agency, authenticity, memory, and truth, as well as the...
