I was struck by the obvious passion these authors have for their subjects, the respect with which they treat their students and the learning process, and the earnestness and commitment with which they approach teaching. Through their work, they were also alerting us in the field to important trends in higher education and research into teaching and learning, such as intersectionality or the role of emotions. I wanted to take every single one of these classes. * Religious Studies Review *
