Description

This volume makes an important contribution to our understanding of literacy as a multi-faceted, complexly situated activity. Contributing authors represent a wide variety of theoretical and research perspectives. Each chapters provides a fresh perspective into a different site for literate behavior and relationships. Freeing literacy from a specific site or set of practices allows us to see it as a way to consider the experiences, memories, and histories of those who use literacy to make meaning in their lives.
