In collaboration with Indigenous Studies scholar Robert Henry (Métis), they share their stories using photovoice, an emancipatory research process where 1 participants are understood to be the experts of their own experiences. Each photograph in Indigenous Women and Street Gangs was selected and placed in order to show how the authors have changed with their experiences. Following their photographs, the authors each share a narrative that begins with their earliest memory and continues to the present. Together the photographs and narratives bring a deeper meaning to the women’s lived realities. Throughout, these women show us the meaning of survivance, a process of resistance, resurgence, and growth. While often difficult to read, the narratives shared by Amber, Bev, Chantel, Jazmyne, Faith, and Jorgina are direct, explicit, sensitive, and imbued with hope and humour. They provide unparalleled insight into the lives of these women and break all kinds of stereotypes along the way. amber, bev, chantel, jazmyne, faith, and jorgina are survivors. They have co-authored this book with robert henry (Métis, Prince Albert), Assistant Professor of Indigenous Studies at the University of Saskatchewan. 184 pages | Full colour, references, 56 photographs 978–1–77212–549–8 | 9” x 9” | $24.99 (T) paper 978–1–77212–584–9 | $24.99 (t) epub 978–1–77212–585–6 | $24.99 (t) pdf Indigenous Studies / Urban Studies / Sociology September 2021 SPORT Overcoming the Neutral Zone Trap Hockey’s Agents of Change CHERYL A. MACDONALD & JONATHON R.J. EDWARDS, Editors This engaging interdisciplinary collec- tion seeks to shed light on narratives and research that challenge hockey’s norms, push its boundaries, and provide new ways of conceptualizing its role in North American culture. The volume’s editors use the metaphor of the neutral zone 2 trap to explore how traditional ideologies and practices within the sport have contributed to exclusion and the misperception of various ways of existing in its community. By peeling back assumptions and common understandings of hockey culture, Overcoming the Neutral Zone Trap opens up critical discussions of previously underexplored topics as they relate to the women’sgame, Indigenous participation, players with disabilities, viable career pathways, masculine identi- ties, hockey parents, mental health, and social media. contributors: Angie Abdou, Kieran Block, Cam Braes, William Bridel, Judy Davidson, Jonathon R.J.

D. MORIN & JANE CAWTHORNE, Editors In Impact, 21 women writers consider the ramifications of concussion on their personal and professional lives. The anthology bears witness to the painstaking work that goes into redefining identity and regaining creative practice after a traumatic event. By sharing their complex, non-linear, and sometimes incomplete healing journeys, these women convey the magnitude of a disability which is 3 often doubted, overlooked, and trivialized, in part because of its invisibility. Showcasing a diversity of women’s stories, Impact offers compassion and empathy to all readers and families healing from concussion and other types of trauma. contributors: Adèle Barclay, Jane Cawthorne, Tracy Wai de Boer, Stephanie Everett, Mary-Jo Fetterly, Rayanne Haines, Jane Harris, Kyla Jamieson, Alexis Kienlen, Claire Lacey, E.

Walking in honour of his father, a staunch Anglican who passed away before they could begin their trip together, Haigh wonders: Is there a place in the modern 4 secular world for pilgrimage? On his journey, he sorts through his own spiritual aimlessness while crossing paths with writers like Anthony Trollope, John Keats, Jane Austen, Jonathan Swift, Charles Dickens, and, of course, Geoffrey Chaucer. On Foot to Canterbury is part travelogue, part memoir, part literary history, and all heart. Happiest when reading or hiking, ken haigh has written one other travel memoir, Under the Holy Lake: A Memoir of Eastern Bhutan (UAlberta Press). He has worked as a teacher and librarian and lives in Clarksburg, Ontario. 256 pages | 1 map, references Wayfarer Series 978–1–77212–545–0 | 6” x 9” | $26.99 (t) paper 978–1–77212–590–0 | $26.99 (t) EPUB 978–1–77212–591–7 | $26.99 (t) PDF Travel / Memoir / Literary Pilgrimage August 2021 DESIGN / ARCHITECTURE Situating Design in Alberta ISABEL PROCHNER & TIM ANTONIUK, Editors Douglas J. Cardinal, Foreword Situating Design in Alberta makes the case that design has the potential to drive economic growth, improve quality of life, and promote sustainability in the province and across the country. Contributors bring both scholarly and practice-based perspec- tives and come from diverse disciplines, including architecture, interior design, industrial design, and visual communications. The collection is organized around 5 four main topics—history, education, business, and sustainability—and touches on a variety of issues. This synergy of different design approaches lends a sense of forward momentum to the field, stimulates reflection about regional oppor- tunities and challenges for both practitioners and policy makers, and provides a model for future studies in other provinces and regions. contributors: Tim Antoniuk, Ken Bautista, Carlos Fiorentino, Maria Goncharova, Andrea Hirji, Mark Iantkow, Barry Johns, Lyubava Kroll, Courtenay Ruth McKay, Skye Oleson- Cormack, Isabel Prochner, Janice Rieger, Elizabeth Schowalter, Megan Strickfaden, Tyler Vreeling, Ron Wickman isabel prochner is Assistant Professor of Industrial and Interaction Design in the School of Design at Syracuse University. tim antoniuk is Associate Professor of Design Studies in the Department of Art & Design at the University of Alberta. 224 pages | Full colour throughout, 35 images, references, index 978–1–77212–578–8 | 6” x 9” | $39.99 (S) paper 978–1–77212–597–9 | $39.99 (s) PDF Design / Architecture November 2021 SOCIOLOGY / RURAL STUDIES The Right to Be Rural KAREN R. FOSTER & JENNIFER JARMAN, Editors In this collection, researchers analyze rural societies, economies, and gover- nance in North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia through the lens of rights and citizenship, across such varied domains as education, employment, and health. The provocative concept of a “right to be rural” illuminates not only the challenges faced by rural communities worldwide, but also 6 underappreciated facets of community resilience in the face of these challenges. The book’s central question—“is there a right to be rural?”—offers insights into how these communities are created, maintained, and challenged. The authors illustrate that citizenship rights have a spatial character, and that this observation is critical to studying and understanding rural life in the twenty-first century. Scholars and policymakers concerned with the health and well-being of rural communities will be interested in this book. contributors: Ray Bollman, Clement Chipenda, Innocent Chirisa, Logan Cochrane, Pallavi Das, Laura Domingo-Peñafiel, Laura Farré-Riera, Jens Kaae Fisker, Lesley Frank, Greg
