About the Author :
Deborah Anne Dooley is Professor of English, Chair of the English Department, faculty member in the Women's Studies Program, and Director of Writing Programs at Nazareth College of Rochester.

Review :
"Dooley's careful attention to the words and works of women writers (professional and student) both explains the silencing of women and at the same time demonstrates how effectively we have failed to 'hear' them. In a similar manner, as she 'listens' to these voices, she demonstrates the kind of connectedness we must achieve with our students; a connectedness only possible when we begin to respect what they say and ask how this shapes the way that they say it. I find this writing strategy both effective and enjoyable. "Her development of a phenomenology of intimacy in connection with college writing is intellectually very important and joins a growing body of theory which I believe will radically change the field." - Sandra Jamieson, Drew University
