Communication Yearbook 18 originally published in 1995 focuses on cognitive approaches to the study of human communication, examining topics such as the formation of interaction goals, cognitive models of message production, mindfulness and minlessness in message processing and attention to televised messages. Sections two and three concentrate on the communicative management of health and environmental risks, critical analyses of classical approaches to risk communication and the ways in which people are connected through diverse forms of communicative behavior, including supportive relationships, electronic mail systems and ideologies.

The Communication Yearbook 13 includes chapters on the following topics: Interaction goals in negotiation, an analysis of ethnographic narrative, the role of the news media in international relations, Japan as an information exporter, group decision making, new models for mass communication research.

In Communication Yearbook 11 major contributions from leading scholars in a variety of communication fields are presented and then critiqued by other authorities (often representing complementary or competing schools of thought). Topics addressed and commented on include the mass media audience, the theory of mediation, effective policy for health care communication and feminist criticism of television.

The Communication Yearbook annuals publish diverse, state-of-the-discipline literature reviews that advance knowledge and understanding of communication systems, processes, and impacts across the discipline. Sponsored by the International Communication Association, each volume provides a forum for the exchange of interdisciplinary and internationally diverse scholarship relating to communication in its many forms. This volume re-issues the yearbook from 1983.

Communication, Cultural and Media Studies: The Key Concepts is a book to help you come to terms with terms, compiled by a leading figure in the field. This third edition of this classic text forms an up-to-date, multi-disciplinary glossary of the concepts you are most likely to encounter in the study of communication, culture and media, from 'anti-globalization' to 'reality tv', from 'celebrity ' to 'tech-wreck'.
