Description
Summary:Feminist Technical Communication introduces readers to technical communication methodology demonstrating how rhetorical feminist approaches are vital to the future of technical communication. Using an intersectional and transcultural approach, Erin Clark fuses the well-documented surge of work in feminist technical communication throughout the 1990s with the larger social justice turn in the discipline. The first book to situate feminisms and technical communication in relationship as the focal point, Feminist Technical Communication traces the thread of feminisms through technical communication's connection to social justice studies. Feminist Technical Communication offers a methodological approach to the systematic interrogation of power structures that operate on hidden misogynies. This book will be useful to technical communicators, scholars of technical communication and rhetoric, readers interested in gender studies and public health, and is an ideal text for graduate-level seminars focused on feminisms, social justice and cultural studies.
