Contemporary Daoism, Organic Relationality, and Curriculum of Integrative Creativity
This book critiques the assumption that Western creativity is cutting edge, and explores how it may have contributed to crises in education, society, and ecology. In its exploration of classroom dynamics, gender implications, and nonviolence curriculum, it advocates for Daoist creativity, which emphasizes relationality and interdependence.
Interrogating Gendered Pathologies
Interrogating Gendered Pathologies points out and critiques unjust patterns of pathology. Erin A. Frost and Michelle F. Eble assemble a transdisciplinary approach from/to technologies, rhetorics, philosophies, epistemologies, and biomedical data to consider the effects of biomedicine’s gendered norms on people’s lives. Using a range of complementary and intersectional theoretical approaches, contributors ask questions about rhetoric’s role in healthcare and how it differs depending on patient embodiment and the ways nonnormative bodies are pathologized. These chapters engage common narratives about the ways in which gender in healthcare is secondary and highlights the stories of people...

Poetic Inquiry for Synchrony and Love
Guided by theoretical, philosophical, experiential, and ethical understanding, Poetic Inquiry is positioned as a way of becoming in an animate cosmos—a co-creative world pulsing in-to and out-of existence. This positioning does not reflect an ontological turn in the field. Rather, it claims a place that has been yet not differentiated within Poetic Inquiry publications, gatherings, and arts-oriented research communities. This collection calls unwaveringly for listeners and readers to question their embodied experience of reality so to recognize the interdependence between their bodies and the breathing earth—the easterly winds, aspen’s sibling roots, and morning’s quilled songs; thes...
On Mothering Multiples: Complexities and Possibilities
Demeter Press took on the challenge of discussing multiples through On Mothering Multiples: Complexities and Possibilities, a book that promised to “(re)explore, (re)present, and make meaning of the process of conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and mothering experiences with multiples”. Under the editorship of Kathy Mantas, and through diverse contributions of research, artwork and narrative pieces, this topic is explored with diverse voices that elicit nuance towards a subject that often suffers from cliché and overt charm. Daring to taunt the reader who may be beguiled by the blessing of multiples with an unflinching look at subjects such as fetal demise, disability, post-partum depre...

Middle Grounds: Essays on Midlife Mothering
Although motherhood writings are rich and emerging, the available literature on midlife motherhood and mothering is incomplete and often presented from a narrow perspective. Middle Grounds: Essays on Midlife Mothering fills this gap, widening the lens on a sociological phenomenon that is expanding in the twenty first century. It brings together scholarly and creative essays from diverse disciplines and cultural perspectives to reflect a more contemporary viewpoint — that motherhood and mothering is not limited by the stages of life or chronological age. It echoes distinct voices speaking about experiences that represent a global reality for midlife mothering practices. In essence, this collection demonstrates that everything can transpire in the middle period of a woman’s life. Thus, in midlife, we encounter a broad range of mothering experiences and practices, and ways of rep- resenting and expressing them
