Strategic Reputation Management To w ards C o mpany o f G o o d Pekka Aula, University of Helsinki and Saku Mantere, Helsinki University of Technology

Strategic Reputation Management examines the ways in which organizations achieve “goodness” through reputation, reputation management and reputation strategies. It presents a contemporary model of strategic reputation management, helping organizations and stakeholders to analyze the business environment as a communicative field of symbols and meanings in which the organization is built or destroyed. Authors Pekka Aula and Saku Mantere introduce the eight generic reputation strategies, through which organizations can organize their stakeholder relationships in various ways. They illustrate their arguments using real-world examples and studies, from the Finnish Ski Association to Philip Morris International.

Reconfiguring Public Relations Eco lo gy, equity and enterprise David McKie and Debashish Munshi, both at University of Waikato, New Zealand Innovative and timely, this PR book is the first to address environmental questions within the context of global business. An excellent counterpoint to the existing US-oriented literature on this topic, here the authors set out ways to equip public relations to respond to and re-imagine itself in the light of current major forecasts and trends for uncertain business, environment and social conditions. Arguing that PR must engage more appropriately with the changing world of the twenty-first century, the authors draw from postmodern and postcolonial approaches to reframe cultural relations, PR education, futures, history and professionalism to suggest how PR might be moved from its current insularity and begin contributing to increased environmental responsibility, social justice and global enterprise. This book will be of considerable interest to postgraduate students of public relations and communication management in Europe, Canada, the U.S., and Asia. It would also be of topical interest to academics, professionals, and strategists in public relations.

Public Relations

Reputation Management The Key to Successful Public Relatio ns and C o rpo rate C o mmunicatio n John Doorley and Helio Fred Garcia, both at New York University, USA Reputation management is the most important theme in corporate and organizational communication today. Leading corporate communicators and educators John Doorley and Helio Fred Garcia argue that most CEOs don’t actually pay much heed to reputation and this is to their peril. Heads of government and non-profit agencies don’t do much better managing the reputation asset, as recent scandals demonstrate. Yet, when leaders get reputation right over the long term, they follow certain principles, like the ones described here for the first time by Joe Hardy, one of the world’s most successful builders. This book is a how-to guide for professionals and students in public relations and corporate communication, as well as for CEOs and other leaders. It rests on the premise that reputation can be measured, monitored, and managed. Organized by corporate communication units (media relations, employee communication, government relations, and investor relations, for example), the book provides a field-tested guide to corporate reputation problems such as leaked memos, unfair treatment by the press, and negative rumors—and it is this rare book that focuses on practical solutions. Each chapter is fleshed out with real-world experience by the authors and their 25 contributors, including Lynn Appelbaum, The City College of New York; Gail Belmuth, International Flavors & Fragrances, Inc.; Kenneth Berkowitz, Healthcare Marketing and Communications Council; Roberta Bowman, Duke Energy Carolinas (formerly, Duke Power); Sandra Boyette, Wake Forest University; Andrea Coville and Ray Thomas, Brodeur; Lou Capozzi, Publicis; Steve Doyal, Hallmark; Anthony Ewing, Logos Consulting Group; Ed Ingle, Microsoft Corporation; James Lukaszewski, The Lukaszewski Group; Tim McMahon, McMahon Marketing; and Judy Voss, the Public Relations Society of America. 2006: 7x10: 456pp Hb ISBN13: 978-0-415-97470-7: £60.00 US $100.00 Pb ISBN13: 978-0-415-97471-4: £27.99 US $45.00 AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY

The Future of Excellence in Public Relations and Communication Management C hallenges fo r the Next G eneratio n Edited by Elizabeth L. Toth, University of Maryland/College Park, USA

The Future of Excellence in Public Relations and Communication Management brings together an outstanding group of public relations scholars and practitioners to consider the indelible theory building in public relations produced in the 1992 IABC Excellence Study, a benchmark body of work examining best practices in the public relations field. In this assembled collection, editor Elizabeth L. Toth and the contributors show how and in what ways the theories of the Excellence Study have developed and changed. They present research that advances excellence theories, adds new dimensions and directions to the excellence theories, and shows how the excellence study has moved on to a global stage. Toth and her colleagues challenge future researchers to continue the theorybuilding that will lead to understand how strategic public relations management contributes to organizations and society. Public relations and communication management scholars, in addition to practitioners and graduate students studying these areas, will benefit immensely from the work included here.

Rethinking Public Relations

C ritical Debates and C o ntempo rary Practice

Strategic Planning for Public Relations

PR Pro paganda and Demo cracy Kevin Moloney, Bournemouth University, UK All PR, whether for charities or arms manufacturers, is weak propaganda. Though it has its undeniable benefits (it grabs attention and helps circulate more information), it also has costs (such as selective messaging). This extensively revised edition of a classic text fully investigates PR, updating and expanding earlier arguments and building upon the successful first edition with new thoughts, data and evidence. Thought-provoking and stimulating, Rethinking Public Relations 2nd Edition challenges conventional PR wisdom. It develops the accepted thinking on the most important question facing PR - its relationship with democracy - and finds a balance of advantages and disadvantages which leave a residue of concern. It tackles topical issues such as: • PR as a form of propaganda which flourishes in a democracy • the connections between PR and journalism • the media, promotions culture and persuasion. Designed to appeal to final year undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers studying public relations, media and communications studies, this book explores the most important relationship PR has - the connection with democracy - and asks what benefits or costs it brings to politics, markets and the media. Selected Table of Contents: 1. A Great Niagara of PR 2. PR from Top to Bottom 3. A Future with PR 4. PR and Propaganda 5. PR Propaganda in the UK 6. Can PR and Democracy Co-exist? 7. Is PR Damaging Democracy? 8. Ethics, Social Responsibility, Stakeholders 9. Politics, Corporate PR, Campaigning 10. Markets, Branding, Reputation 11. Media Matters 12.

Gaining Influence in Public Relations The Ro le o f Resistance in Practice Bruce K. Berger, University of Alabama and Bryan H. Reber, University of Georgia, USA

Gaining Influence in Public Relations explores how professionals can increase their influence in practice to help their organizations achieve success. This provocative book explores the largely uncharted territories of power, resistance, dissent, and activism in public relations, arguing that practitioners can increase their power and social legitimacy by developing and using a wider range of influence resources, strategies, and tactics. Authors Bruce K. Berger and Bryan H. Reber talked with hundreds of practitioners, analyzed original survey data, and examined a detailed case study to develop a theory of power relations. Ultimately, the book seeks to advance the ethical and effective practice of public relations.

The Language of Advertising: Major Themes in English Studies

Imaging in Advertising

Edited by Guy Cook, Open University, UK

Fern L. Johnson, Clark University, USA

Advertising is one of the most prominent, powerful, and ubiquitous contemporary uses of language. Its seductive and controversial quality has attracted consistent and intense attention across a range of academic disciplines including linguistics, media studies, politics, semiotics, and sociology.

While scholarship on the visual elements of advertising has advanced our understanding of communication and media, the language elements - or ‘verbal images’ of the advertisement tend to be downplayed, providing a truncated analysis.

The reasons for this academic interest are far from superficial. The study of advertising brings together many of the key social and political issues of our time: the new capitalism; globalization; overconsumption and the environment; cultural and individual identities; and the communications revolution. It provides insight into the ideologies and values of contemporary societies. Advertising’s creative use of language makes it a particularly rich site for language and discourse analysis. Operating in all media and exploiting the interaction between word, sound, and image, it provides a key location for studies of multimodal communication. Simultaneously poetic and commercial, it raises questions about the nature of creativity and art. Ever since the intensification of advertising in the 1950s, leading scholars have analyzed its use of language. This new four-volume Routledge Major Work brings together for the first time the most seminal and controversial works, allowing users to obtain a wide and inclusive view of this rewarding topic. It will be welcomed by scholars and other researchers in the field as an invaluable “mini library” on the language of advertising. Select Contents: VOLUME ONE: Fundamentals Part 1: Early Critiques Part 2: Background Theory Part 3: Advertising Language VOLUME TWO: The Social Context of Advertising Language Part 4: Advertising in Society Part 5: Advertising Across Cultures Part 6: Ads, Gender, and Sexuality Part 7: Multimodal Communication Part 8: Case StudiesóProducts and Campaigns Part 9: Public Relations and Brands October 2007: 6-1/4x9-3/4: 1656pp Hb ISBN13: 978-0-415-41215-5: £595.00 US $1190.00

William Leiss, Queen’s University, Stephen Kline, Simon Fraser University, Suut Jhally, University of Massachusetts, Amherst and Jacqueline Botterill, University of East London, UK Now available in a significantly updated third edition to address new issues such as the Internet and globalization, Social Communication in Advertising remains the most comprehensive historical study of advertising and its function within contemporary society. It traces advertising’s influence within three key social domains: the new commodities industry, popular culture, and the mass media that manages the constellation of images that unifies all three.

Verbal and Visual C o des o f C o mmerce

Imaging in Advertising explores how the verbal and visual work together to create a language of advertising that speaks to audiences and moves them to particular thoughts and actions. Through a series of case studies, Fern L. Johnson examines how the verbal and visual produce meaning - exploring advertisements for cigarettes, alcohol, and cosmetics - and argues that the verbal images in advertising are as important as the visual images, treating advertisements as a structured whole, rather than a series of fragments.

Introduction to Communication Studies John Fiske The second edition of this widely used introductory textbook updates the work to take accounts of developments in the last few years. John Fiske’s study equips the reader with a range of methods of analysing examples of communication in our society, together with a critical awareness of the theories underpinning them. The reader will be able to tease out the latent cultural meanings in such apparently simple communications as news photos or popular TV programs.

Black Communications and Learning to Read Building o n C hildren’s Linguistic and C ultural Strengths Terry Meier, Wheelock College, USA This book is about effective literacy instruction for students in grades K-4 who use the language variety that many linguists call African American English, but which, as explained in the Introduction, the author calls Black Communications (BC). Throughout, considerable attention is given to discussing the integral and complex interconnections among African American language, culture, and history, drawing significantly on examples from African American historical and literary sources. Although it is theoretical in its description of the BC system and its discussion of research on language socialization in African American communities, the major focus of this book is pedagogy. Many concrete examples of successful classroom practices are included so that teachers can readily visualize and use the strategies and principles presented. Selected Table of Contents: Preface.

Lesbian Discourses

Redesigning English

The Discourse Reader

Images o f a C o mmunity

Edited by Sharon Goodman, David Graddol and Theresa Lillis, all at the Open University, UK

Edited by Adam Jaworski and Nikolas Coupland, both at University of Wales, Cardiff, UK

Lesbian Discourses is the first book-length treatment of lesbian text and discourse. It looks at what changing images of community American and British lesbian authors have communicated since 1970, how this change can be traced in texts such as pamphlets, magazines and blogs, and why this change has taken place. At the heart of the book is a detailed linguistic analysis, which is embedded in a discussion of the relevant socio-political contexts and discourse practices, and supplemented by interview data. The book can more generally be read as an example of how to do textual analysis in social research, in particular how to engage in the discourse-historical and socio-cognitive study of collective identity. Despite its text-centered approach, the book avoids being overly technical and will therefore be of interest not only to postgraduate students and researchers in linguistics but also to those in anthropology, history and sociology, especially women’s/gender studies.

This fully updated edition of Redesigning English explores the innovative uses of English from early manuscripts to post-colonial literature, creative writing and developments in new media. Focusing on how English has, and continues to evolve through its global status, there is a strong emphasis on the visual forms of language and communication, and on issues of identity and politics.

“ The Discourse Reader, Second Edition, is now the definitive source of readings on discourse analysis. It is the best balanced and integrated collection available, ranging from papers engaged with close analysis of language details to ones dealing with wider social and political themes.”

New chapters for this edition include:

The Discourse Reader collects in one volume the most important and influential articles on discourse analysis. Designed as a structured sourcebook and divided into clear sections, the book covers the foundations of modern discourse analysis and represents all of its contemporary methods and traditions.

Laura K. Guerrero and Kory Floyd, both at Arizona State University, USA This volume provides a synthesis of research on nonverbal communication as it applies to interpersonal interaction, focusing on the close relationships of friends, family, and romantic partners. Authors Laura K. Guerrero and Kory Floyd support the premise that nonverbal communication is a product of biology, social learning, and relational context. They overview six prominent nonverbal theories and show how each is related to bio-evolutionary or sociocultural perspectives. Their work focuses on various functions of nonverbal communication, emphasizing those that are most relevant to the initiation, maintenance, and dissolution of close relationships.

Communication Yearbook 31

Communication and Social Cognition Theo ries and Metho ds Edited by David R. Roskos-Ewoldsen, University of Alabama, and Jennifer L. Monahan, University of Georgia, USA

Communication and Social Cognition represents the explosion of work in the field of social cognition over the past 25 years. Expanding the contribution made by Social Cognition and Communication, published in 1982, this scholarly collection updates the study of communication from a social cognitive perspective, with contributions from well-known experts and promising new scholars in diverse areas of communication. Organized into sections—message production, interpersonal communication, media, and social influence—the collection reflects the areas in which social cognition theories have become integral in understanding communicative processes, and in which a proliferation of scholarship has emerged. Readers are informed of the current major trends in social cognition research, and are introduced to its history. Throughout the text, chapter authors highlight both theoretical and methodological aspects of research, encouraging communication scholars to include social cognition in their research, and, likewise, promoting communication to social cognition researchers. The volume addresses the future of social cognition, including the most fitting directions in which to take scholarship, emerging theories in the field, and the methods currently yielding the most promising results.

Communication and Social Cognition appeals to scholars, researchers, and advanced students in communication and psychology. It can be used as a textbook in graduate courses related to social cognition, social influence, message production, interpersonal communication, media effects, and message design.

Critical Thinking About Sex, Love, and Romance in the Mass Media Media Literacy A pplicatio ns

A C ritical Intro ductio n

Edited by Mary-Lou Galician, Arizona State University and Debra L. Merskin, University of Oregon, USA

Critical Thinking About Sex, Love, and Romance in the Mass Media investigates how romantic coupleship is represented in books, magazines, popular music, movies, television, and the Internet within entertainment, advertising, and news/information.

David Machin and Theo Van Leeuwen, both at Cardiff University, UK Featuring a wide range of exercises, examples, and images, this textbook provides a practical way of analysing the discourses of the global media industries. Building on a comprehensive introduction to the history and theory of global media communication, specific case studies of lifestyle and entertainment media are explored with examples from films, global women’s magazines, Vietnamese news reporting and computer war games. Finally this book investigates how global media communication is produced, looking at the formats, languages and images used in creating media materials, both globally and in localized forms. At a time when the media is becoming increasingly global, often with the same films, news and television programs shown all over the world; Global Media Discourse provides an accessible, lively introduction into how globalization is changing the language and communicative practices of the media. Integrating a range of approaches, including political economy, discourse analysis and ethnography, this book will be of particular interest to students of media and communication studies, applied linguistics, and (critical) discourse analysis.

The Language of the News Martin Conboy, University of Sheffield, UK

The Language of the News investigates and critiques the conventions of language used in newspapers and provides students with a clear introduction to critical linguistics as a tool for analysis. Using contemporary examples from UK, USA and Australian newspapers this book deals with key themes of representation from gender and national identity to “race”- and looks at how language is used to construct audiences, to persuade, and even to parody. It examines debates in the newspapers themselves about the nature of language including commentary on political correctness, the sensitive use of language and irony as a journalistic weapon. Featuring chapter openings and summaries, activities, and a wealth of examples from contemporary news coverage (including examples from television and radio), Language of the News broadens the perceptions of the use of language in the news media and is essential reading for students of media and communication, journalism, and English language and linguistics.

Organizations also rely increasingly on mediated interaction for their communications. Responding to this evolution in communication, this collection explores how existing and new personal communication technologies facilitate and change interpersonal interactions. Chapters offer in-depth examinations of mediated interpersonal communication in various contexts and applications. Contributions come from well-known scholars based around the world, reflecting the strong international interest and work in the area.

Media Effects and Media Psychology

Playing Video Games Mo tives, Respo nses, and C o nsequences Edited by Peter Vorderer, University of Southern California, USA and Jennings Bryant, University of Alabama, USA From security training simulations to war games to role-playing games, to sports games to gambling, playing video games has become a social phenomena, and the increasing number of players that cross gender, culture, and age is on a dramatic upward trajectory. Playing Video Games: Motives, Responses, and Consequences integrates communication, psychology, and technology to examine the psychological and mediated aspects of playing video games. It is the first volume to delve deeply into these aspects of computer game play. It fits squarely into the media psychology arm of entertainment studies, the next big wave in media studies. The book targets one of the most popular and pervasive media in modern times, and it will serve to define the area of study and provide a theoretical spine for future research.

Health Communication NEW

Communication as Comfort Multiple Vo ices in Palliative C are Sandra L. Ragan, University of Oklahoma, USA, Joy Goldsmith, Young Harris College, USA, Elaine M. Wittenberg-Lyles, University of North Texas, USA and Sandra Sanchez-Reilly, University of Texas Health Science Center, USA This exceptional work explores the complexities of communication at one of the most critical stages of the life experience—during advanced, serious illness and at the end of life. Challenging the predominantly biomedical model that informs much communication between seriously ill and/or dying patients and their physicians, caregivers, and families, Sandra L. Ragan, Elaine M. Wittenberg-Lyles, Joy Goldsmith, and Sandra Sanchez-Reilly pose palliative care—medical care designed to comfort rather than to cure patients—as an antidote to the experience of most Americans at the most vulnerable juncture of their lives. With an author team comprised of three health communication scholars and one physician certified in geriatrics and palliative medicine, this volume integrates the medical literature on palliative care with that of health communication researchers who advocate a biopsychosocial approach to health care. Applying communication theories and insights to illuminate problems and to explain their complexities, the authors advocate a patient-centered approach to care that recognizes and seeks to lessen patients” suffering and the many types of pain they may experience (physical, psychological, social, and spiritual) during lifethreatening illness.

It includes an international collection of contributors, and highlights non-traditional (non-Western) perspectives on health communication.

Communicating at the End of Life Finding Magic in the Mundane Elissa Foster This enlightening volume provides first-hand perspectives and ethnographic research on communication at the end of life, a topic that has gone largely understudied in communication literature. Author Elissa Foster’s own experiences as a volunteer hospice caregiver form the basis of the book. Communicating at the End of Life recounts the stories of Foster and six other volunteers and their communicative experiences with dying patients, using communication theory and research findings to identify insights on the relationships they form throughout the process. What unfolds is a scholarly examination of a subject that is significant to every individual at some point in the life process.

Communication Perspectives on HIV/AIDS for the 21st Century Edited by Timothy M. Edgar, Emerson College, USA, Seth M. Noar, University of Kentucky, USA and Vicki S. Freimuth, University of Georgia, USA Reflecting the current state of research into the communication aspects of HIV/AIDS, this volume explores AIDS-related communication scholarship, moving forward from the 1992 publication AIDS: A Communication Perspective. Editors Timothy Edgar, Seth M. Noar, and Vicki S. Freimuth have developed this up-to-date collection to focus on today’s key communication issues in the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Chapters herein examine the interplay of the messages individuals receive about AIDS at the public level as well as the messages exchanged between individuals at the interpersonal level. Acknowledging how the face of HIV/AIDS has changed since 1992, the volume promotes the perspective that an understanding of effective communication through both mediated and interpersonal channels is essential to winning the continued battle against AIDS. With new topics, new contributors, and a broadened scope, this book goes beyond a revision of the 1992 volume to reflect the current state of communication research on HIV/AIDS across key contexts. It is designed for academics, researchers, practitioners, and students in health communication, health psychology, and other areas of AIDS research. As a unique examination of communication research, it makes an indelible contribution to the growing knowledge base of communication approaches to combating HIV/AIDS.

The Dark Side of Interpersonal Communication Edited by Brian H. Spitzberg, San Diego State University, USA and William R. Cupach, Illinois State University, USA

The Dark Side of Interpersonal Communication examines the multifunctional ways in which seemingly productive communication can be destructive and vice versa and explores the many ways in which dysfunctional interpersonal communication operates across a variety of personal relationship contexts. This second edition of Brian Spitzberg and William Cupach’s classic volume evaluates the developments of topic areas presented in the earlier edition, all in the context of surveying the scholarly landscape for new and important avenues of investigation. Offering much new content, this volume features internationally renowned scholars addressing such compelling topics as uncertainty and secrecy in relationships; the role of negotiating self in cyberspace; criticism and complaints; teasing and bullying; infidelity and relational transgressions; revenge; and adolescent physical aggression toward parents. The chapters are organized thematically and offer a range of perspectives from both junior scholars and seasoned academics. By posing questions at the micro and macro levels, The Dark Side of Interpersonal Communication draws closer to a perspective in which the darker sides and brighter sides of human experience are better integrated in theory and research. Appropriate for scholars, practitioners, and students in communication, social psychology, sociology, counseling, conflict, personal relationships, and related areas, this book is also useful as a text in graduate courses on interpersonal communication, ethics, and other special topics.

Personal Relationships Personal Relationships and Personal Networks Malcolm R. Parks, University of Washington, USA The effort to understand personal relationships has traditionally focused on the individual characteristics of participants. This volume takes this analysis a step further, focusing on research linking participants’ feelings and actions within a given personal relationship to the larger social context surrounding it. Author Malcolm R. Parks expands on the idea that the initiation, development, maintenance, and dissolution of relationships are inextricably connected to each participant’s social network-a perspective that allows for a better appreciation of our connection to the world, and a greater understanding our significant power as social actors.

Organizational Identity in Practice Edited by Lin Lerpold, Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden, Davide Ravasi, SDA Bocconi School of Management, Italy, Johan van Rekom, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands and Guillaume Soenen, E.M. Lyon, France Organizational Identity in Practice provides much needed in-depth studies on what happens when aspirations, claims and beliefs interact. Given the practical needs of managers and students this exciting new text provides readers with more insight into what differences in these identity aspirations, claims and beliefs really mean and what we may expect to occur when these differences become visible and what the outcomes of these processes are likely to be. The diverse case studies illustrate how well-known firms have dealt with the broad issues of “who we are as an organization” and “what makes us similar or distinct from others” and cover a broad range of industries, firms, and organizational forms. The cases from companies such as Air France, AT&T, Bang & Olufsen, BP, Statoil, Starbucks, Scania and Alfa Romeo are focused on the broad topics of organizational identity, strategy and the environment, multiple and conflicting identities, the construction of identities, and how organizations express and project their identities. The authors give scholars, students and managers valuable ideas on how to deal with organizational identity challenges within firms.

Exploring the diverse communication challenges in today’s organizations, this text: • Explains the impact of critical environmental influences on all levels; • Provides extensive discussion of teams, leadership, technology, listening, and interpersonal communication; • Offers current analysis, utilizing a broad base of information and research; and • Establishes links between organizational communication and perceptions, theory, networks, and symbolic behavior. Building on the successful foundation of the previous editions, this third edition has been thoroughly updated and revised to reflect the most current organizational communication theory and research. Features of this edition include: extensive real life examples and experiences, grounding in transactional communication and advanced systems approaches and macro and micro analyses of key topics and issues. As an accessible and practical examination of organizational communication, this text is intended for use in organizational communication, leadership, organizational development, and organizational intervention courses at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level.

This work provides an exceptional case study, shedding light onto the functioning of an actual corporate board of directors. It presents analysis of a series of corporate management meetings shown in the 1974 documentary film, Corporation: After Mr. Sam. The film chronicles the discussion and communication processes as a company considers how to replace its president, and it serves as a unique opportunity for analysis of real-world organizational discourse. With an impressive list of prominent contributors, Interacting and Organizing: Analyses of a Management Meeting employs the dual perspectives of organizational communication and language and social interaction (LSI) to examine the film. It is arranged around specific topics, analyzed separately by organizational communication and LSI scholars. Editor FranÁois Cooren provides an introduction for each topic, and a comparison and synthesis conclude each part. Readers will appreciate the information presented, as it is an arena typically off-limits to outside eyes. The transcript of the film is included as an appendix to the volume. This volume is appropriate for use in advanced courses and seminars in organizational communication, LSI, management, and organizational behavior. With its distinctive approach to studying the film’s content, it will be invaluable to scholars, researchers, and graduate students in organizational communication, LSI, and management.

Communication as Organizing unites multiple reflections on the role of language under a single rubric: the organizing role of communication. Stemming from Jim Taylor’s earlier work, The Emergent Organization: Communication as Its Site and Surface (LEA, 2000), the volume editors present a communicational answer to the question, “what is an organization?” through contributions from an international set of scholars and researchers. The chapter authors synthesize various lines of research on constituting organizations through communication, describing their explorations of the relation between language, human practice, and the constitution of organizational forms. Each chapter develops a dimension of the central theme, showing how such concepts as agency, identity, sensemaking, narrative and account may be put to work in discursive analysis to develop effective research into organizing processes. The contributions employ concrete examples to show how the theoretical concepts can be employed to develop effective research.

Persuasion NEW 3rd Editio n

The Dynamics of Persuasion C o mmunicatio n and A ttitudes in the 21st C entury Richard M. Perloff, Cleveland State University, USA

The Dynamics of Persuasion provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to persuasive communication and attitude change. Offering a thorough discussion of classic and contemporary theories of persuasion, this text explores the structure and functions of attitudes, consistency between attitude and behavior, and issues in attitude measurement. Examining persuasion through media, interpersonal, and psychological lenses, author Richard M. Perloff systematically investigates the impact of persuasive communication on attitudes toward a variety of topics, including health, politics, and racial prejudice. In addition to presenting persuasion theory and research, he provides numerous examples of persuasion in action, demonstrating the role of persuasion research in everyday life. Written in a highly accessible and clear style, The Dynamics of Persuasion serves to: • introduce the social science perspective on persuasion • enhance understanding of persuasion theories and research • highlight the major issues discussed in the field of persuasion research • explore the complexities and subtleties in the dynamics of everyday persuasion • raise awareness about the ethics of contemporary persuasion. This updated third edition offers new topics of discussion, including: the pervasiveness of persuasion, discussion of implicit attitudes, political segregation, policy aspects of attitude measurement, narrative persuasion, political language, social exchange with its applications to medical marketing, product placement and complexities in communication campaigns

Self Versus Others explores the third-person effect and its role in media as a means of persuasion. This scholarly work synthesizes more than two decades of research on the third-person effect, the process in which individuals do not perceive themselves to be impacted by particular messages;such as persuaded to engage in risky behaviors or encouraged to be violent;but they believe others will be. Authors Julie L. Andsager and H. Allen White focus their analysis specifically on the role of media and media messages, and assert that the third-person effect functions as a means of persuasion. They explore the underlying concepts and connections this effect shares with established theories of persuasion and mediated communication.

Edited by Patricia Bizzell, College of the Holy Cross, USA

The only volume to date focusing on the topic, Self Versus Others demonstrates the significant impact persuasion has on public opinion, behavior, and policy. As such, understanding the means through which persuasion can be accomplished thereby provides a powerful tool. Timely and succinct, this book:

C lassical O rigins to C o ntempo rary Inno vatio ns

• provides thorough synthesis of third-person effect literature; • argues that systematic versus heuristic processing underlies third-person perceptions; and • conceptually links third-person effects with coorientation. Intended for communication scholars with an interest in persuasion, as well as those in key areas including mass communication, health communication, and political communication, this book is also appropriate for advanced courses in persuasion, communication theory, and campaigns.

Understanding African American Rhetoric Edited by Ronald L. Jackson II and Elaine B. Richardson This is an extraordinarily well-balanced collection of essays focused on varied expressions of African American Rhetoric; it also is a critical antidote to a preoccupation with Western Rhetoric as the arbiter of what counts for effective rhetoric. Rather than impose Western terminology on African and African American rhetoric, the essays in this volume seek to illumine rhetoric from within its own cultural expression, thereby creating an understanding grounded in the culture’s values. The consequence is a richly detailed and well-researched set of essays. The contribution of African American rhetoric can no longer be rendered invisible through neglect of its tradition.

Considering PragmaDialectics honors the monumental contributions of one of the foremost international figures in current argumentation scholarship: Frans van Eemeren. The volume presents the research efforts of his colleagues and addresses how their work relates to the pragmadialectical theory of argumentation with which van Eemerenís name is so intimately connected. This tribute serves to highlight the varied approaches to the study of argumentation and is destined to inspire researchers to advance scholarship in the field far into the future.
