Life in the Frozen State
A bit dry and abstract at times, but raises important issues and presents them concisely, with some engaging anecdotes. Interestingly, author doesn't attempt to apply the approaches she discusses to her own book; I would have been curious to know why. Traditional scholarship may be mired in positivism, elitism, the illusion of objectivity, etc... but from the standpoint of sheer practicality, the collaborative, multivocal, contextualized, author-saturated, politically galvanic research Kirsch envisions sounds like a pretty tall order.
