[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Why did Kurt Vonnegut shun being labeled a writer of science fiction (SF)? How did Margaret Atwood and Ursula K. Le Guin find themselves in a public argument about the nature of SF? This volume explores the broad category of SF as a genre, as one that challenges readers, viewers, teachers, and scholars, and then as one that is often itself challenged (as the authors in the collection do). SF, this volume acknowledges, is an enduring argument. The collected chapters include work from teachers, scholars, artists, and a wide range of SF fans, offering a powerful and unique blend of voices to scholarship about SF "]
[{"$nulls":4},"as well as examinations of the place for SF in the classroom. Among the chapters, discussions focus on SF within debates for and against SF, the history of SF, the tensions related to SF and other genres, the relationship between SF and science, SF novels, SF short fiction, SF film and visual forms (including TV), SF young adult fiction, SF comic books and graphic novels, and the place of SF in contemporary public discourse. The unifying thread running through the volume, as with the series, is the role of critical literacy and pedagogy, and how SF informs both as essential elements of liberatory and democratic education."]

[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","A collection of thought-provoking interviews with cutting-edge designers who transform ordinary wearables into extraordinary sites of personal expression, public engagement, and radical political action. Is the revolution hanging in your closet Wearable Utopias explores the promise of wearables for reimagining social and political problems of today into diverse and inclusive worlds for tomorrow. Kat Jungnickel, Ellen Fowles, Katja May, and Nikki Pugh entangle science and technology, gender, and cultural studies with contemporary issues to highlight the role wearables can play in forging alternate paths through conventional landscapes. Featuring 24 interviews with new and established international designers, the collection covers everything from coats designed to protect digital privacy to high-performing jeans that combat air pollution to hi-vis cyclewear that responds to urban harassment. The interviews in Wearable Utopias are organized into six key themes addressing pressing civic issues: expanding (wearables that push physical, social, and political boundaries); moving (wearables that enable a wide range of sport and activities); concealing (wearables that defend privacy or keep secrets); connecting (wearables that link individuals to large scale issues); leaking (wearables that challenge the idea that urinating and menstruating is problematic or taboo); and working (wearables that address inequalities in the workplace). Wearable Utopias Â&#xA0;offers insight and inspiration for students, researchers, designers, and anyone making things to wear who are "]
