Book Risk Communication for the Future

Download or read book Risk Communication for the Future written by Mathilde Bourrier and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conventional approach to risk communication, based on a centralized and controlled model, has led to blatant failures in the management of recent safety related events. In parallel, several cases have proved that actors not thought of as risk governance or safety management contributors may play a positive role regarding safety. Building on these two observations and bridging the gap between risk communication and safety practices leads to a new, more societal perspective on risk communication, that allows for smart risk governance and safety management.

This book was released on 2009-03-04 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Excellence in Public Relations and Communication Management brings together a stellar collection of public relations scholars to address the question: What will happen to continue the seminal theory building in public relations, bolstered by the work of James E. Grunig and Larissa A. Grunig, and the groundbreaking 1992 IABC Excellence Study examining best practices in the field?

Book Perceiving the Future Through New Communication Technologies

Download or read book Perceiving the Future Through New Communication Technologies written by James Katz and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book updates a long standing problem: how do people understand and prepare for the future using the technologies at hand and that they expect to have imminently? Drawing on experts from a variety of fields, the volume provides novel and penetrating insights that reflect innovative research on both headline-gripping and historical problems. Organized in three sections, the first examines Artificial Intelligence (AI) and mobile communication as they both cause disruptions and solve problems at both personal and society-wide levels. The second section explores specific technologies in social contexts. Here the focus is on AI, robotics, and even smart speakers in real-world scenarios. The third and final section addresses deeper implications for how emerging media has been used to come to terms with the problem of what will happen next. At no other time in recent memory have people been so concerned about how to move from the disturbed current situation into an improved future state, one that promises a brighter future for all; in this regard, these timely and penetrating studies offer sound guidance. James E. Katz is Feld Professor of Emerging Media at Boston University's College of Communication, USA, where he directs its Division of Emerging Media Studies. His publications on the effects of artificial intelligence, social media, mobile communication, and robot-human interaction have been internationally recognized and widely translated. Among his recent volumes are Journalism and the Search for Truth in an Age of Social Media (with Kate Mays, 2019) and Philosophy of Emerging Media (with Juliet Floyd, 2015). Juliet Floyd is Professor of Philosophy at Boston University, USA. Her publications, translated into several languages, span the history and philosophy of logic, mathematics, language, symbolism, and new media, focusing especially on the history of twentieth century philosophy and philosophical aspects of emerging media. Her recent books include Wittgenstein's Annotations to Hardy's Course of Pure Mathematics (with Felix Mühlhölzer, 2020) and Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Mathematics (2021). Katie Schiepers is Division Administrator for Emerging Media Studies at Boston University, USA. She holds a Master of Philosophy in Classics and Master of Science in World Heritage Conservation and is currently pursuing advanced studies in educational policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the state of strategic communication as a discipline and how it has emerged as a unique area of scholarship in the beginning of the 21st century. Strategic communication encompasses all communication that is substantial for the survival and sustained success of entities like corporations, governments, non-profits, social movements, and celebrities. A major aspect of the field is the purposeful use of communication by an organization to engage in conversations of strategic significance to its goals. The contributions in this book provide unique insights, make compelling arguments, and highlight promising areas of scholarship in strategic communication. Presented in four parts, the chapters explore the emergence of strategic communication, its conceptual foundations, its expanding body of knowledge, and the foundation for further development and new directions in the field. Of interest to those studying communication from the perspectives of communication science, management theory, organizational studies, or business administration, this volume will also be useful for readers who are new to strategic communication, and who are interested in the field for its new avenues of research. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Strategic Communication.

  • Author : Jim Taylor
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2005-12-13
  • ISBN : 0470094524
  • Pages : 322 pages

Download or read book Space Race written by Jim Taylor and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-12-13 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five years ago the world of agency communications turned upside down. Ogilvy introduced 360 degree thinking, Unilever formulated their ABC process, TBWA developed their Disruptive philosophy, and total communications planning was born. Now, total communications planning is being increasingly demanded by clients. The question is no longer where does the future lie, but how does an agency get there as quickly as possible? This book sets out to define the structure of tomorrow's agencies by interviewing the leading lights of the industry today. Jim Taylor, himself an experienced practitioner of Total Communications Planning, identifies common issues and themes to offer a set of likely scenarios for The Agencies of the Future.

Book Communication Revolution

Download or read book Communication Revolution written by Robert Waterman McChesney and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sharply argued book, McChesney explains why we are in the midst of a communication revolution which is at the centre of 21st century life. Yet this profound juncture is not well understood, in part because media criticism and scholarship haven't been up to the task. McChesney's concise history of media studies shows how communication scholarship has grown increasingly irrelevant in recent years, even as the media became a decisive issue of these times. The revolution in communication calls for a transformation in the way we think about media.

Book Dolphin Communication and Cognition

Download or read book Dolphin Communication and Cognition written by Denise L. Herzing and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts survey the latest research on dolphin communication and cognition, offering a comprehensive reference to findings in the laboratory and from the field. Dolphin researchers have collected an impressive amount of data over the last twenty years, thanks to advances in technology for monitoring, recording, and analyzing dolphin behavior as well as increasing interest in exploring and modeling dolphins' cognitive capacities. This volume offers a comprehensive reference to the latest research on dolphin communication and cognition, reporting on findings from both the laboratory and the field. The contributors review a wide range of topics, including vocalization, abstract reasoning abilities, imitation and learning, social cognition, echolocation, and ethical issues in working with cetaceans. The book begins by examining the dolphin brain and its evolution, the anatomy of its unique sound production and reception systems, and its sensory abilities. It next treats communication, reviewing the complexity of dolphins' vocalization, and then describes research on cognition, from both experimental and developmental perspectives. Finally, the book considers the future of dolphin research, including a series of provocative questions that remain unanswered, posed by the volume's expert contributors.
