It would be nice to systematically address imagination and joy in the text. The book takes primarily a critical stance --- likely shaped by when it was written, at the height of the pandemic lockdowns and protests in 2020 --- but it should be balanced with the ample great work on joy, imagination, and futurism. Perhaps there are ways to address this at the end of each chapter's content section, but also at the end of each pedagogy research survey, pointing to work that imagines liberatory futures of computing.
