Summary

"This collection of essays explores posthuman approaches to social studies education, challenging the field to think differently about the precarious status of the world. Authors examine how educators and scholars can foster more ethical ways of teaching, learning, and researching by cultivating a greater sense of attunement to the more-than-human."--
