The editors of WRITING IN KNOWLEDGE SOCIETIES provide a thoughtful,
carefully constructed collection that addresses the vital roles
rhetoric and writing play as knowledge-making practices in diverse
knowledge-intensive settings. The essays in this book examine the
multiple, subtle, yet consequential ways in which writing is
epistemic, articulating the central role of writing in creating,
shaping, sharing, and contesting knowledge in a range of human
activities in workplaces, civic settings, and higher education.
WRITING IN KNOWLEDGE SOCIETIES helps us conceptualize the ways in
which rhetoric and writing work to organize, (re-)produce,
undermine, dominate, marginalize, or contest knowledge-making
practices in diverse settings, showing the many ways in which
rhetoric and writing operate in knowledge-intensive organizations
and societies. Essays are contributed by Natasha Artemeva, Chantal
