Transdisciplinary Studies

Series Editors:  Jeremy Hunsinger, Wilfrid Laurier University and Jason
Nolan, Ryerson University

Aims and Scope: Transdisciplinary Studies is an internationally oriented
book series created to generate new theories and practices to extricate
transdisciplinary research from the confining discourses of traditional
disciplinarities. Within transdisciplinary domains, this series will
publish empirically grounded, theoretically sound work seeking to identify
and solve global problems that conventional disciplinary perspectives
cannot capture. Transdisciplinary Studies seeks to accentuate those aspects
of scholarly research which cut across todays learned disciplines in an
effort to define new axiologies and forms of praxis. This series intends to
promote a new appreciation for transdisciplinary research to audiences that
are seeking ways of understanding complex, global problems that many now
realize disciplinary perspectives cannot fully address. Scholars, policy
makers, educators and researchers working to address issues in technology
studies, public finance, discourse studies, professional ethics, political
analysis, learning, ecological systems, modern medicine, and other fields
clearly are ready to begin investing in transdisciplinary models of
research. It is for those many different audiences in these diverse fields
that we hope to reach, not merely with topical research, but also through
considering new epistemic and ontological foundations for of
transdisciplinary research. —— Currently there are five books in the series:

1. Towards Human Technologies:  Biotechnology, New Media and Ethics  by
Naomi SUnderland, Phil Graham, Peter Isaacs, and Bernerd McKenna
2. Making a Difference: Science, Action and Integrated Environmental
Research by Lorrae von Kerkhoff
3. Ontologies for Developing Things: Making Health Care Futures Through
technology by Casper Bruun Jensen
4. Putting Knowledge to Work & Letting Information Play by Timothy W. Luke
and Jeremy Hunsinger
5. Drawing as Language: Celebrating the Work of Bob Steele by Marni J.
Binder & Sylvia Kind

We are seeking manuscript proposals that fit our aims and scope.
 Manuscripts can be submitted at any time to  Jeremy Hunsinger, Wilfrid
Laurier University at jhuns at vt.edu or  Jason Nolan, Ryerson University at
jnolan at ryerson.edu
