Research and Teaching with Speculative Fictions is an imaginative transdisciplinary collection that demonstrates the power of how speculative stories can unsettle assumptions, spark new ways of knowing, and open possibilities for more just and relational futures on pressing social, political, and ethical issues, from AI and genomics to indigenous architecture. An invaluable resource for scholars, educators, and students alike.

This book genuinely excited me, and I believe it will do the same for others. It makes a compelling case for speculative fiction as a serious research and teaching tool, one that can shake up how we think about our fields, and push us to imagine other possibilities. What I especially appreciate is how the editor brought together voices from around the world while keeping the whole volume readable and accessible. Whether you're a researcher, teacher, or just someone trying to do things differently, this book offers both inspiration and practical ways forward.

Sarah E. Truman's edited collection serves to illustrate the wide-reaching implications of speculative texts and theorizing on how we think about and do research across disciplines. This is a timely contribution in a moment where 'what if?' questions are more important than ever.
