'Complex Worlds: Digital Culture, Rhetoric, and Professional
Communication' is a collection of thought-provoking scholarly
essays by teachers and industry practitioners in professional
communication and technology-oriented fields. Scrupulously edited
for a range of readers, the collection aims to help familiarize
advanced students, teachers, and researchers in professional
communication, computers and writing, literacy, and sister
disciplines with key issues in digital theory and practice. An
emphasis on the situations of and audiences for digital
communication identifies 'Complex Worlds' as a rhetorical approach.
In an era when globalizing markets and digital technologies are
transforming culture around the world, readers should find the
collection both engaging and timely. The collections' twelve essays
constitute a diverse and thematically coherent set of inquiries.
Included are explorations of topics such as cyber activism, digital
'dispositio', citizen and open-source journalism, broadband
affordances, XML, digital resumes, avant garde performance art,
best pedagogical practices, and intercultural communication between
East and West, North and South. The text is especially well suited
for advanced courses in professional and applied writing,
contemporary rhetorics, and digital culture. The complexity
highlighted in the collection's title is brought into relief by
authors who address how the digital is daily unmaking our
assumptions about the boundaries between work and school, the
global and the local, the private and the public. 'Complex Worlds'
offers readers an opportunity to build on their rhetorical
awareness by expanding their understanding of the means, aims, and
strategies of effective communication--today and in the future.
