Communication Theories,Perspectives, Processes, and Contexts
Communication Theories is designed to provide students with a current and comprehensive discussion of influential theories in communication. While it emphasizes theories developed by communication scholars, the book also includes theories developed outside the field that have strongly influence the work of communication scholars. The main goals of this text are to provide students with a complete understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of communication theories; help students see where these theories fit in the grand scheme of social inquiry; and help students learn more generally about how to evaluate and critique theories at a more sophisticated level of understanding.

Communication as ...,Perspectives on Theory
In Communication as...: Perspectives on Theory, editors Gregory J. Shepherd, Jeffrey St. John, and Ted Striphas bring together a collection of 27 essays that explores the wide range of theorizing about communication, cutting across all lines of traditional division in the field. The essays in this text are written by leading scholars in the field of communication theory, with each scholar employing a particular stance or perspective on what communication theory is and how it functions. In essays that are brief, argumentative, and forceful, the scholars propose their perspective as a primary or essential way of viewing communication with decided benefits over other views.

Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication services: High-impact Technology - What You Need to Know: Definitions, Adoptions, Impact, Benefits, Maturity, Vendors,
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) refers to technologies that allow both wireless and wired systems to communicate with other devices of the same ability. M2M uses a device (such as a sensor or meter) to capture an event (such as temperature, inventory level, etc.), which is relayed through a network (wireless, wired or hybrid) to an application (software program), that translates the captured event into meaningful information (for example, items need to be restocked). This is accomplished through the use of telemetry, the language machines use when in communication with each other. Such communication was originally accomplished by having a remote network of machines relay information back to a central hub for analysis, which would then be rerouted into a system like a personal computer. This book is your ultimate resource for Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication services. Here you will find the most up-to-date information, analysis, background and everything you need to know. In easy to read chapters, with extensive references and links to get you to know all there is to know about Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication services right away, covering: Machine-to-Machine, Outline of communication, A New Concept for Multiphase Encryption Technique, Accreditation in Public Relations, Additive white Gaussian noise, Adequate Information Management in Europe, Alcons, Allen curve, American Scientist Open Access Forum, Anxiety/Uncertainty Management, Association for Business Communication, ASUIsTalking, Asynchronous communication, Asynchronous Communication Mechanism, Asynchrony, Attention work, Audience memory curve, Audience reception, Autocommunication, Aviation light signals, BACnet, Bad apples excuse, Basic Support for Cooperative Work, Behavioral communication, Bell Telephone Company Building (Philadelphia), Bi Yantao, Black sermonic tradition, BLUF (communication), Bohm Dialogue, Brand engagement, Branding national myths and symbols, BROG, Business communication, Call and response, Civil discourse, Closed-ended question, Coherence time (communications systems), Communibiology, Communication, Communication Accommodation Theory, Communication complexity, Communication endpoint, Communication for Development, Communication noise, Communication sciences, Communication studies, Communications training, Communicative ecology, Connected Earth, Contagion effect, Content format, Contra principia negantem non est disputandum, Coordinated Management of Meaning, Coregulation, Cucumis (website), Cultural schema theory, Damaging quotation, Data storage device, Deception, Decision downloading, DELCA, Detection, Development communication, Dissemination, Dissimulation, Dropout (electronics), E-Services, Emotional expression, Emotional intimacy, Emotional labor, Employee silence, End of Message, Eprint, EPrints, Exchange diary, Exformation, Exhibition, Expectancy theory, Face Negotiation Theory, Facilitated communication, Factoid, Feed-forward (Management), Fence insert, Figure and ground (media), Forward-looking statement, Four sides model, Friendship book, Gapminder Foundation, Global network, Global workforce, Graphic communication, Guerrilla communication, Heritage interpretation, History of public relations, History of telecommunication, Host media processing, Human-animal communication, Hybrid mail, Hypercommunicator, Hyperpersonal Model, HYT, IEARN, Improvement plan, Information and communications technology, Information and communication technologies for development, Information and communication technologies for environmental sustainability...and much more This book explains in-depth the real drivers and workings of Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication services.

Encyclopedia of Communication Theory,
The Encyclopedia of Communication Theory provides students and researchers with a comprehensive two-volume overview of contemporary communication theory. Reference librarians report that students frequently approach them seeking a source that will provide them with a quick overview of a particular theory or theorist - just enough to help them grasp the general concept or theory and its relation to the discipline as a whole. Communication scholars and teachers also occasionally need a quick reference for theories. Edited by the co-authors of the best-selling textbook on communication theory and drawing on the expertise of an advisory board of 10 international scholars and nearly 200 contributors from 10 countries, this work finally provides such a resource. More than 300 entries address topics related not only to paradigms, traditions, and schools, but also metatheory, methodology, inquiry, and applications and contexts. Entries cover several orientations, including psycho-cognitive; social-interactional; cybernetic and systems; cultural; critical; feminist; philosophical; rhetorical; semiotic, linguistic, and discursive; and non-Western. Concepts relate to interpersonal communication, groups and organizations, and media and mass communication. In sum, this encyclopedia offers the student of communication a sense of the history, development, and current status of the discipline, with an emphasis on the theories that comprise it.

Organizing for Social Change,A Dialectic Journey of Theory and Praxis
Conventionally, analysts of social change perceive organizational initiatives in binary terms: projects are seen as being either top-down or bottom-up; local culture is seen as being either modern or traditional. Challenging this restrictive dualism, this important book argues that social change emerges in a nonlinear, circuitous, and dialectic process of struggle. In support of their approach, the authors: - identify four dialectic tensions as being central to the process of organizing for social change: control and emancipation, oppression and empowerment, dissemination and dialogue, and fragmentation and unity; - argue for a dialectic approach which acknowledges that contradictory tensions can and do co-exist (for example, a project can control beneficiaries with tough conditionalities even as it emancipates them); and - draw upon cases set in various contexts—social justice, academic, corporate, artistic, and others—from both developing and developed countries.

Using Communication Theory,An Introduction to Planned Communication
"Using Communication Theory was a rarity in bridging the gap between ideas and practice. It was itself a model of good communication and in its second, revised edition, it is still a most reliable and accessible guide to the lessons that communication theory and research offer to practitioners, especially in planning for change." - Denis McQuail, Professor Emeritus, University of Amsterdam "Using Communication Theory has become a classic in the education of communication. It is the comprehensive and self-evident source for theories and models, forming the base for the study of professions requiring communication planning." - Larsåke Larsson, Örebro University What does theory have to do with the practice of communication? Communication planning is used daily by thousands of people: public relations practitioners, technical writers, information campaigners, advertising professionals, organization consultants, educators, health communicators and more. Without a solid understanding of communication theory, practitioners have difficulty getting their messages heard. The second edition of this best-selling textbook has been updated with the student firmly in mind. With new learning features that directly engage with the practical side of theory, students will: Practice what they learn with activities and exercises. Apply their own experiences to theory through prompts to reflection. Consolidate their learning with highlighted definitions and lists of key terms. Take it further with boxed excerpts from classic texts. Showing how theories relate directly to the planning and experience of effective communication, Using Communication Theory - 2nd Edition provides indispensable insights into the practical nature of communication theory. In today’s landscape of communication overload, this book remains an essential, authoritative guide for both students and practitioners.
