The book bridges #SocialScience & #Philosophy arguing that emotions are rational concerns.
The book helps me articulate that since #AcWri is a social practice, it is a human practice that relates to our values & ethics, such as #EpistemicVirtues, which are values about #Knowledge.
Knowledge isn't value free: #objectivity & #truth are values as is #rationality. In so far as these are values, they are subjective (epistemologically transitive).

Another role I forgot to mention in my introduction is that I am a Learning Advisor on this #ArtificialIntelligence short course run by #TheOpenUniversity - it's a strategic role for me, as I am concurrently preparing a research project on the implications of #AI on #AcWri and what it even means for #AcademicWriting to be a #human 'social practice'.
I'm keen to hear from any others doing research on such implications
