Dictionary of Confusing Words and Meanings
A new-style dictionary that sorts out those annoying words, alike in sound and related in meaning, that so frequently get misused and confused. Covering a wide range of words, this dictionary lists approximately 800 pairs or larger groups of confusibles, also giving examples of their correct, and sometimes incorrect, usage and, in many cases, an explanation of their origin. An introduction explains how a confusible arises, and an Appendix lists many of the prefixes and suffixes that, in more than a few words, serve only to compound the confusion. In short, this dictionary seeks to define, distinguish and differentiate. It is felt, too, that it will distract, divert and even delight.

Dissonant Methods is an innovative collection that probes how, by approaching teaching creatively, postsecondary instructors can resist the constrictions of neoliberalism. Based on the foundations of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, whereby educators are asked to explore teaching as scholarship, these essays offer concrete and practical meditations on resistant and sustainable teaching. The contributors seek to undermine forms of oppression frequently found in higher education, and instead advance a vision of the university that upholds ideals such as critical thinking, creativity, and inclusivity. Essential reading for faculty and graduate students in the humanities, Dissonant Methods offers urgent, galvanizing ideas for anyone currently teaching in a college or university.
