"Powerful, passionate, analytical Emergent Writing Methodologies in Feminist Studies locates itself at the crossroads between social science and the humanities, between the understanding, the writing and the doing of the social, between self and society. A path-breaking contribution to methodological debates that cautiously explores the politics of writing, the art of dialogue and the difficult but vital scholarly connections between writing, analysis and the emergence of alternative notions of social justice." - Diana Mulinari, Professor in Gender Studies and Sociology, Centre for Gender Studies, Lund University, Sweden."I’ve waited a long time for a book as clear and powerful as this to be written: its quiet confidence affirms the achievements of gender studies in recent years and the contribution feminism has made across the disciplines: challenging procedural norms and questioning the limits of knowledge by inventing relational methodologies and hybrid genres. All these exciting qualities are to be found in this elegant collection of essays, where conceptual and critical rigor is blended with emotion – surprising, affecting, touching … It is so hard to discuss issues of intellectual process in ways that engage and excite, and raise further possibilities for imagining yet new approaches, yet this is exactly what these marvelous essays do, speaking in multiple voices across the spectrum of feminist academic writing today."- Jane Rendell, Professor in Architecture and Art, Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment, University College London, UK.
