Most academic mobbing goes undetected because professors fear losing their reputations as scholars. To be demoted or removed from a teaching position is severe punishment, but to be blacklisted unable to find work elsewhere is far worse--not just a loss of a beloved career but loss of an identity. Here are stories of others. My own story is told at www.ruthtucker.net.

Fired at 57: My Fight for Justice in Christian Academia
This past year, after writing more than 20 books under contract with various publishers, I self-published my first book. It offers a lot of details about my firing from Calvin Theological Seminary that are not discussed in my blogs. And, it has a full chapter on Academic Mobbing, a topic on which there is very little literature. Perhaps even more significant is my telling the stories of other professors from Christian colleges and seminaries who have endured similar treatment and have often felt the mobbing effect. It's available on Amazon for a very reasonable price.
