Review Quotes: Posthuman Convergences, inspired by Rosi Braidotti's capacious vision for the posthumanities, argues for the necessity of the transversal, anticolonial, environmental, material, and feminist humanities. The wildly divergent essays undertake transdisciplinary methodological experiments, creative practices, and open dialogues, urging us to revitalize modes of inquiry essential for this perilous and precarious moment.--Stacy Alaimo, University of Oregon
