All the chapters are worth reading.... The book, as the editor hopes, is indeed fodder for discussion. * New England Archivists Newsletter * Knox should be commended for compiling such a compelling collection of essays and case studies that really forces the reader to think critically about trigger warnings. * Journal of Intellectual Freedom and Privacy * A timely and needed interdisciplinary compendium detailing the historical, legal, pedagogical, and practical context of trigger warnings. With arguments and case examples from a variety of vantage points, this edited collection provides a strong foundational basis to understand the promises and pitfalls of trigger warnings. -- Elana Newman, professor of psychology, University of Tulsa, and codirector, Tulsa Institute of Trauma, Adversity, and Injustice, University of Tulsa Trigger Warnings is a nuanced look at the background and practice of the hot academic intellectual freedom topic of the day. The contributors don't always agree with each other, but they do provide a thoughtful introduction to the concerns, and the classroom reality, of a shift to a more student-centered and consciously inclusive educational style. Strongly recommended for all academic collections. -- James LaRue, director, American Library Association Office for Intellectual Freedom and the Freedom to Read Foundation
