When I quit grad school and left academia, I assumed I would never publish a book. So The @nursingclio.bsky.social Reader is a literal dream come true. And now it gets to sit on my shelf with other publications that I have shepherded as an editor. www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/the-nursing-...

Book news! I’m pleased to say that Railway Infrastructure and the Victoria Novel is now in circulation www.cambridge.org/gb/universit...

Disability is the one minority group that anyone could potentially join at any time. It spans all ages, classes, races, religions, genders, geography…. Disability justice intersects with every other form of oppression; ensuring disabled rights is key to ensuring human rights.

Shaimaa has a funded place at Edinburgh to study for a PhD with me, but is stuck in Gaza due to Home Office restrictions. I'm proud of her for speaking about her situation on TV and grateful to reporter Paris Gourtsoyannis for covering her story. news.stv.tv/east-central...

Shaimaa’s PhD will be funded by @sgsah.bsky.social (supervised by @hannahkateboast.bsky.social Will Tattersdill & me, in partnership with @commapress.bsky.social) - but she is currently trapped in Gaza unless the UK Gov relaxes its requirement for biometric data bsky.app/profile/comm...
