Description:
Powerfully written, Toxic Literacies is an important, timely book about the ways the welfare system, the criminal justice system, the health care system, and other bureaucracies use official texts to control our lives. During six years of working closely with men and women living in the margins of society, Denny Taylor learned how official documentation is repeatedly used to hide human rights violations in this country. It's all in the record. Men, women, and children are incapacitated by bureaucratic texts. There is a form for every situation. On paper every official action can be justified.
