Communication In The 2020S: Viewing Our World Through The Eyes Of Communication Scholars - 9781032111605

This supplemental text provides an inside look at the discipline of Communication Studies through a series of essays in which top scholars from a wide range of subfields discuss how they've experienced and how they study the crucial issues of our time. The 2020s opened with a series of events with massive implications for the ways we communicate, from the COVID-19 pandemic, a summer of protests for social justice, and climate change related natural disasters, to one of the most contentious presidential elections in modern U.S. history. The essays in this book provide snapshots of many of these issues as seen through the eyes of a specialist in the major subfields of communication studies, including interpersonal, organizational, strategic, environmental, religious, social justice, risk, sport, health, family, instructional, and political communication. Written in an informal style that blends personal narrative with accessible explanation of basic concepts, the book is ideal for introducing students to the range and practical applications of communication studies. This text makes an accessible supplementary text for Introduction to Communication, Introduction to Graduate Studies, and Capstone courses, and will also interest students considering studying Communication.
