Another Science is Possible is the best kind of political work—refusing to declare itself ‘radical,’ it is instead radicalizing. However, that very modesty risks obscuring its intellectual energy—indeed, its passion.

In this book, Paik demonstrates that the production of these so-called outsides to rights are not new nor are they specific to any particular presidential administration. Rather, they are resilient and flexible strategies linked closely with the twentieth-century rise of rights discourses themselves.

Whale music was not just music, then, but prefigurative eco-politics. It identified a range of subject positions for identifying with, and making sense of, environmentalism. Such, at least, are the arguments of my recent paper in the journal, (“Environmentalists Abide: Listening to Whale Music, 1965-1985”), which surveys the rise of whale music over its most celebrated period.

"Seeing Like a City" is a testament to the evolution of Ash Amin and Nigel Thrift’s urban thinking. This book is about doing urban theory without the safety net of established narratives, in the hopes of grasping new viewpoints from which to see the urban corners, patchworks, and dynamics that are either over-simplified or utterly dismissed by mainstream scholarship.

This book is condensed and challenging, and it is a must-read for scholars, professionals, and urban activists, as it explores not just the well-known work of Agamben that was translated to English, but also some less familiar texts translated and discussed by Boano.

"Bodies Across Borders" is an insightful anthology examining the multiple geographies of cross-border health care mobility encouraged by advances in transport, information technology, and biotechnologies (cryopreservation, immunosuppressive drugs, DNA sequencing), as well as by variegated national regulations and uneven regional development (between the Global South and the Global North, rural and urban areas).

Emilie Cameron’s "Far Off Metal River" is a masterful and carefully written book that addresses pressing theoretical and methodological questions for postcolonial studies, nature-society relations, and Indigenous geographies. The book is situated in and around Kugluktuk, Nunavut, where it examines how southern relations with northern peoples and places have been constituted in and through story and storytelling.

The time we inhabit—the Anthropocene—poses an unprecedented challenge: the collapse of our metaphysical grounds and the grounds of the earth itself.1 How do we actually think this present, in all its nihilism, catastrophe, mania, and potential? "The Neoliberal Subject", a new book by political theorists David Chandler and Julian Reid, offers two somewhat complementary possibilities for doing so.

"Street Corner Secrets" is a compelling exploration of the intersections between space, society, and sex work. It is a thorough and fascinating text for readers who are interested in topics that range from the political economies of space, to the precariousness of informal labor, to debates over sexual commerce.

Taking inspiration from architectural and literary case studies, Crawford challenges popular discussions of trans as a matter of interiority and stability to propose instead a theory of exteriority and movement. Not ignoring the omnipresence of bathrooms’ discussions, he tackles the topic to suggest that merely creating gender-neutral bathrooms will not solve the problem of violence towards trans people and that the relation between architecture and trans identities should instead be approached through architecture’s potential discourse on transing.
