Writing for publication is such an integral part of academic life that it is often taken for granted. The journey to becoming a successful published writer is a challenging one that requires perseverance, skill and dedication. In examining this process, the authors of this original and timely book seek to provide academic writers with a deeper understanding of their own practice of writing that will help them continually improve throughout their careers. Drawing on insights gleaned from interviews with well-known academic authors working in the area of educational and social research, Passion and Politics examines the following key themes: the journey to becoming a writer; identities; going about writing; producing a text; engaging in the process; the politics of writing for publication; writing, thinking and learning. This book will be indispensable not only for writers and teachers, but also for researchers interested in academic writing and the emerging field of writing for publication.
