Communication Yearbook 23, originally published in 2000 includes
discussions about the relationship between communication and the
emotional processes. The authors do not confine the reviews to
research conducted in a single context, but instead draw upon
scholarship that informs about shame and guilt in intimate, family,
organizational and public discourse. Also explored is literature on
compliance resistance and the emotional reactions that accompany
resistance. Other reviews address issues involving communication
about sexual harassment in the workplace, cross-cultural influences
on management styles, and the mass media's role in encouraging
change in body shape. Offering a tremendous variety of in-depth
analyses of communication scholarship in a broad array of research
areas, this is a vital sourcebook for researchers, teachers and
students alike.
Communication Yearbook 22 contains in-depth literature reviews
focused on an important topic in specialized areas as well as
syntheses that describe scholarship in other domains. Each chapter
addresses an aspect of one of the most pressing issues currently
facing individuals: how to communicate with people from different
backgrounds or cultures. The first two chapters examine the ways
sex differences and cross-cultural differences affect communication
behavior. The following three chapters focus on harmful speech, the
effects of pornography on criminal sexual offenders and
personalization of conflict. Further chapters focus on
argumentation, organizational settings and government/media
relations as well as styles of customer service, communication
within families with aging parents and intercultural
friendship.
Communication Yearbook 21 reflects the rich diversity of the
field of communication, both in terms of content areas and methods.
The topics of the eleven reviews range from interpersonal influence
to media practices and effects. The authors address issues such as
organizational democracy and change, intercultural negotiation,
journalism and broadcasting practices, the management off crisis
and the relationship between media and the presidency. The volume
was originally published in 1998. In addressing these issues,
narratives, historical accounts and meta-analytic techniques are
employed.

Hans Giebernath lives among the dull and respectable townsfolk of a sleepy Black Forest village. When he is discovered to be an exceptionally gifted student, the entire community presses him onto a path of serious scholarship. Hans dutifully follows the regimen of study and endless examinations, his success rewarded only with more crushing assignments. When Hans befriends a rebellious young poet, he begins to imagine other possibilities outside the narrowly circumscribed world of the academy. Finally sent home after a nervous breakdown, Hans is revived by nature and romance, and vows never to return to the gray conformity of the academic system.

Interregionalism, the institutionalized relations between world
regions, is a new phenomenon in international relations. It also a
new layer of development in an increasingly differentiated global
order. This volume examines the structure of this phenomenon and
the scholarly discourse it is generating. It takes stock of
empirical facts and theoretical explanations, bringing together
with clarity and concision the latest research on this key area.
This essential new book: * traces the emergence of interregionalism
and reviews the latest literature * provides a conceptual and
theoretical framework for study * includes case studies of
inter-regional relations between: Asia and America; Asia and
Europe; Europe and America; and Europe and Africa. * delivers
comparative analyses and special cases such as continental summits
and interregional relationships beyond the Triad. * summarizes and
evaluates the findings of each chapter, providing a basis for
further research. This is a key reference book for students and
researchers of regionalism, global governance and international
relations.
Over the last two decades, globalization and regionalization have
led to the emergence of an increasingly differentiated multi-level
system of global governance. One characteristic of this system is
the growing level of interaction among regional organization and
these interregional relations constitute a novelty in international
relations, one that varies greatly in form, in function and in
level of institutionalization.
"Interregionalism and International Relations" is the first attempt
to summarize the state of the art in this rich new field of
international relations research. It provides a comprehensive,
theory-guided introduction into the numerous facets of this new
phenomenon. Following a theoretical explanation and a typology of
interregional relations, subsequent parts of the book examine key
contacts between major world regions such as Asia and American,
Asia and Europe, America and Europe, and Africa and Europe. This
book also presents comparative analysis and borderline cases that
transcend the standard manifestations of interregionalism.
With high-level contributors noted for their expertise in
international relations and their expertise in interregion
relations, this volume will appeal to political science scholars,
diplomats and those with an interest in global and regional
diplomacy.
The first of Peter Handke's novels to be published in English, "The
Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick "is a true modern classic that
"portrays the...breakdown of a murderer in ways that recall Camus's
"The Stranger"" (Richard Locke, "The New York Times). "The
self-destruction of a soccer goalie turned construction worker who
wanders aimlessly around a stifling Austrian border town after
pursuing and then murdering, almost unthinkingly, a female movie
cashier is mirrored by his use of direct, sometimes fractured prose
that conveys "at its best a seamless blend of lyricism and horror
seen in the runes of a disintegrating world" (Bill Marx, "Boston
Sunday Globe). "
This book explores the factors which are critical in the selection

Throughout North America, non-native wild pigs have become an
ecologically and economically destructive invasive species. Though
they are regarded as a popular game species by some, provide
economic benefits to others, and are even engrained into societal
heritage in some areas, wild pigs are responsible for an
extraordinary amount of damage in both natural and anthropogenic
systems throughout North America. As the density and range of wild
pig habitat have substantially increased over the last several
decades, the magnitude and diversity of their negative impacts are
not yet fully realized or quantified. With various conflicts
continually emerging, wild pig management is difficult and
expensive to achieve. As a result, wild pigs represent one of the
greatest wildlife management challenges North America faces in the
21st century. Invasive Wild Pigs in North America: Ecology,
Impacts, and Management addresses all aspects of wild pig biology,
ecology, damage, and management in a single comprehensive volume.
It assimilates and organizes information on the most destructive
introduced vertebrate species in the United States, establishing a
foundation from which managers, researchers, policy makers, and
other stakeholders can build upon into the future. The book
provides comprehensive coverage of wild pig biology and ecology,
techniques for management and research, and regional chapters. It
is an asset to readers interested in wild pigs, the resources they
impact, and how to mitigate those impacts, and establishes a vision
of the future of wild pigs in North America. Features: Compiles
valuable knowledge for a broad audience including wild pig
managers, researchers, adversaries, and enthusiasts from across
North America Addresses taxonomy, morphology, genetics, physiology,
spatial ecology, population dynamics, diseases and parasites, and
the naturalized niche of wild pigs Includes chapters on damage to
resources, management, research methods, human dimensions and
education, and policy and legislation Contains full color images
and case studies of interesting and informative situations being
created by wild pigs throughout North America Includes a chapter on
wild pigs at the wildland-urban interface, a more recent and
especially challenging issue
