Download or read book Communicating Ideas written by Irving Louis Horowitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communicating Ideas is the first attempt to place publishing in America in its political and commercial setting. The book addresses the political implications of scholarly communication in the era of the new computerized technology. Horowitz does so by examining classic problems of political theory in the context of property rights versus the presumed right to know, and the special strains involved in publishing as a business versus information as a public trust Offering a knowledgeable and insightful view of publishing in America and abroad, this book makes an important contribution to the study of mass culture in advanced societies.The discussion ranges considerably beyond scholarly publications into communication as a whole, encompassing a wide range of issues from cable and satelite television control to specialized issues in copyright legislation, the prize system in publishing, and the definition of standards of the industry. This new edition, expanded by fully one third, expands on such themes, and in addition deals with Horowitz's new research on the history of social science publishing.The first edition, published in 1986, was described by WE. Coleman as "a marvelous book which indeed offers a realistic analysis of publishing." John P. Dessauer declared that "no one thinking seriously about the future of scholarly communication can afford to ignore his work, in particular his treatment of basic issues." Joseph Gusfield (Los Angeles Times), in his review, noted that "Horowitz is alive to the possibilities and barriers for academics to reach a wider audience and for lay persons to utilize scholarship. Both groups can learn much from this intelligent book." And Philip G. Altbach (Scholarly Publishing) concluded his review by saying that Communicating Ideas "will be of interest not only to publishers and editors, but also to librarians and to sociologists of science."

Download or read book Championing Science written by Roger D. Aines and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Championing Science shows scientists how to persuasively communicate complex scientific ideas to decision makers in government, industry, and education. This comprehensive guide provides real-world strategies to help scientists develop the essential communication, influence, and relationship-building skills needed to motivate nonexperts to understand and support their science. Instruction, interviews, and examples demonstrate how inspiring decision makers to act requires scientists to extract the essence of their work, craft clear messages, simplify visuals, bridge paradigm gaps, and tell compelling narratives. The authors bring these principles to life in the accounts of science champions such as Robert Millikan, Vannevar Bush, scientists at Caltech and MIT, and others. With Championing Science, scientists will learn how to use these vital skills to make an impact.

Download or read book Communicating Ideas written by Heath Row and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication hasn't changed that much since the days of Aristotle-believe it or not. Even with the Internet, social media, mobile phones, and augmented reality, how we communicate ideas has largely stayed the same. Discover long-lost and oft-forgotten, time-tested communication secrets-and improve your work, family, community, and personal life. In just five days, learn how to get your point across like a pro. In this book, Communicating Ideas, longtime Google Researcher and business journalist Heath Row takes the guesswork out of selling innovation and new ideas at work, at home, and in your community. Heath Row has worked as a business and technology journalist, marketer, and educator for more than three decades. Now you don't have to attend a leading private university or work in Big Tech to benefit from his advice, experience, and ideas. There has been one element common and consistent to the best work Heath has ever done, or encountered. That common and consistent element is the idea. Whether it's the article or story idea that inspires a writer, reporter, or editor-and in the end, a reader; the new technology, tool, or software that catalyzes the creative efforts of a new development team or business entity; the business idea that energizes the entrepreneur, startup team, or venture capitalist; the theme or topic that brings a gleam to the eye of a student; or the innovative concept or approach that captures the enthusiasm of the salesperson, marketer, or buyer; it is the idea that makes the world go 'round. How we approach identifying and developing new ideas is important. Even more important, however, is how we let other people know about those ideas-how we communicate our ideas. Inside Communicating Ideas, you'll find: ●An original Foreword by Tim Sanders, New York Times bestselling author of Love Is the Killer App: How to Win Business and Influence Friends ●Sanders's recommended reading plan-just five days to being able to successfully sell your own innovations ●The most important components of any communications plan or strategy ●The 11 steps Heath recommends you take-in order-regardless of whether you're communicating your ideas to coworkers, family, friends, community members, or other important and influential people in your life ●Four case studies exploring the ups and downs, and the ins and outs of various ideas Heath has communicated over the course of his career-including one abysmal failure ●Advice and commentary from a wide range of business leaders and activists ●Inspiring and provocative quotations from innovators, leaders, and visionaries ●Open-ended workbook prompts and note sections designed to help you determine, document, and develop a dedicated approach to communicating your own idea-no matter what it is!

Download or read book Mass Appeal written by Justin Gest and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public policy education is oriented around the development of innovative ideas for how to improve governance and make society better. However, it undervalues a critical tool for translating policy ideas into action: the ability to communicate ideas broadly, strategically, and effectively. Drawing on his past frustration with translating his research from academia to the public sphere, Justin Gest has written a primer for public policy students, researchers, and policy professionals on how to turn analyses and memos into clear and persuasive campaigns. This book outlines the principles, structure, and target audience for different media essential to policy communication. Including advice from practitioners and illustrative examples, Gest explains the indispensability of pithiness to clear communication and how to achieve it.
Download or read book Communicating Science Effectively written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-03-08 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science and technology are embedded in virtually every aspect of modern life. As a result, people face an increasing need to integrate information from science with their personal values and other considerations as they make important life decisions about medical care, the safety of foods, what to do about climate change, and many other issues. Communicating science effectively, however, is a complex task and an acquired skill. Moreover, the approaches to communicating science that will be most effective for specific audiences and circumstances are not obvious. Fortunately, there is an expanding science base from diverse disciplines that can support science communicators in making these determinations. Communicating Science Effectively offers a research agenda for science communicators and researchers seeking to apply this research and fill gaps in knowledge about how to communicate effectively about science, focusing in particular on issues that are contentious in the public sphere. To inform this research agenda, this publication identifies important influences â€" psychological, economic, political, social, cultural, and media-related â€" on how science related to such issues is understood, perceived, and used.
Download or read book Communicating the Future written by W. Lance Bennett and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are facing an unprecedented environmental crisis. How can we communicate and act more effectively to make the political and economic changes required to survive and even thrive within the life-support capacities of our planet? This is the question at the heart of W. Lance Bennett’s much-anticipated book. Bennett challenges readers to consider how best to approach the environmental crisis by changing how we think about the relationships between environment, economy, and democracy. He introduces a framework that citizens, practitioners, and scholars can use to evaluate common but unproductive communication that blocks thinking about change; develop more effective ways to define and approach problems; and design communication processes to engage diverse publics and organizations in developing understandings, goals, and political strategies. Until advocates develop economic programs with built-in environmental solutions, they will continue to lose policy fights. Putting “intersectional” communication into action requires acknowledging that communication is not only an exchange of messages, but an organizational process. Communicating the Future is important reading for students and scholars of media and communication, as well as general readers concerned about the environmental crisis.
