Editing for Sensitivity, Diversity and Inclusion: A guide for professional editors
The first of its kind in Australia, this professional reference provides evidence-based definitions, recommendations and support for emerging and experienced editors working in fiction and non-fiction genres for Australian reading audiences.

What’s in it
Part One provides an overview of legal, ideological, philosophical, scientific and theoretical approaches and how to identify them in literary texts. It considers bias, freedom of speech, cultural (mis)appropriation, the main types of critical appraisal of literary works (including review, sensitivity reading, beta-reading and accessibility reading) as well as how to approach the commissioning of these services, the responsibilities of the author, editor and publisher, respectively, and care of the self in editing works that include descriptions of violence or other trauma.

Part Two provides a guide to 35 topic areas, with sections covering:

• Topic summary
• Where to start
• Areas of research, practice or discussion
• Common and accepted usages
• Slurs and terms to avoid
• Authorities and references.
