This book will make a valuable and significant contribution to the fields of writing studies and writing program administration, especially to those who focus their attention on the issues of community literacy, service learning, civic engagement, and transnational writing program administration. . . . an important addition to the growing number of books focused on one of the most important, and ever more timely, constellations of issues faced by higher education today. --David Martins, Rochester Institute of Technology This collection makes a strong case for attention to the transnational nature of all school-sponsored civic engagement, whether global or local. It also provides many compelling examples of thoughtful and critical engagements on the parts of students, teachers, administrators, and community partners. --Brice Nordquist, Syracuse University
