India and the Indian ways of life in the new century are freshly
and comprehensively overviewed in this volume. This one-stop
resource enables students and other interested readers to begin to
understand the vast country with its population of one billion
people, representing hundreds of social groups with more than 100
languages spoken. Henderson provides expert insight into a
cross-section of society. The caste system, Hinduism, the sari,
women's roles, and a dazzling array of festivals are just some of
the facets of the culture and customs explained.
Although the volume primarily focuses on contemporary India,
Henderson's knowledgeable narrative incorporates the progression of
culture from the earliest civilization to the nuclear weapons
debate. There is no other general, in-depth, up-to-date reference
that provides the coverage on the land, people, and history;
religion; world view; art and literature; landscape and
architecture; food and dress; women, marriage, and family;
festivals and leisure activities; music and dance; and social
customs and lifestyles. Numerous photos, a chronology, and glossary
complement the narrative.
Media strategist and award-winning journalist David E. Henderson
reveals how to navigate today s complex and evolving traditional
and online media environments. As new and not-so-new ways of
communication collide, it is imperative to maximize an organization
s voice and awareness, all with the intent to better connect with
audiences.
The online democratization of mass communications is redefining
how people connect, businesses work, and governments run. It s a
new world business matrix and model. Organizations of all sizes can
simply bypass mainstream media to communicate their news, in the
way they choose directly to their audience. In the Internet era,
the status quo is no longer in the scramble for competitive
leadership. It is an ever-changing landscape that can adapt to the
needs of the marketplace and the audience instantaneously.
For top executives, leaders, communications professionals and
managers, "Making News in the Digital Era" makes sense of the
merging old and new media, and delivers practical ways to
communicate in our competitive world.
Praise for David E. Henderson:
David Henderson gets it. He knows the online media world and has
interesting things to say. Besides, he's the dude who got me on
Twitter. Rainn Wilson, actor and creator of SoulPancake.com.
Among the attributes of leadership, the ability to communicate
clearly has never been more important than it is today. If you want
to become a more effective communicator, David Henderson has the
experience and the skills to help. Dan Rather, renowned news anchor
and journalist.
The ideal team to improve an organization s communications would
have a seasoned network newsman, a successful PR executive, someone
with experience in the mainstream media and someone else with
expertise in the digital revolution. That team is David Henderson.
No one can help you make news in the digital era like he can. Greg
Dobbs, veteran ABC News and HDNet television news
correspondent.
I m a huge David Henderson fan because he is a success both as
an award-winning journalist and as a media-relations pro
responsible for stunning successes in generating massive media
attention. Making News in the Digital Era is important because you
ll learn from someone who knows both sides. Forget the
self-proclaimed gurus and pretenders, Henderson is the real deal.

When addressed in its full reactive potential, gender has a
tendency to unfix the reassuring certainties of education and
academia. Gender pedagogy unfolds as an account of teaching gender
learning that is rooted in Derrida's concept of the 'trace',
reflecting the unfixing properties of gender and even shaking up
academic knowledge production.
Practical and candid, this book offers actionable steps to help
Black women leaders create meaningful success. The reflections and
recommendations of the contributors forge a critical and
transformative analysis of race, gender, and higher education
leadership. With insights from humanities, social sciences, art,
and STEM, this essential resource helps to redefine the academy to
meet the challenges of the future. Dear Department Chair is
comprised of personal letters from prominent Black women department
chairs, deans, vice provosts, and university presidents, addressed
to current and future Black women academic professionals, and
offers a rich source of peer mentorship and professional
development. These letters emerged from Chair at the Table, a
research collective and peer-mentoring network of current and
former Black women department chairs at colleges and universities
across the U.S. and Canada. The collective's works, including this
volume, serve as tools for faculty interested in administration,
current chairs seeking mentorship, and upper-level administrators
working to diversify their ranks.
This volume takes up the challenge embodied in its predecessors,
Alternative Shakespeares and Alternative Shakespeares 2, to
identify and explore the new, the changing and the radically
'other' possibilities for Shakespeare Studies at our particular
historical moment. Alternative Shakespeares 3 introduces the
strongest and most innovative of the new directions emerging in
Shakespearean scholarship - ranging across performance studies,
multimedia and textual criticism, concerns of economics, science,
religion and ethics - as well as the 'next step' work in areas such
as postcolonial and queer studies that continue to push the
boundaries of the field. The contributors approach each topic with
clarity and accessibility in mind, enabling student readers to
engage with serious 'alternatives' to established ways of
interpreting Shakespeare's plays and their roles in contemporary
culture. The expertise, commitment and daring of this volume's
contributors shine through each essay, maintaining the progressive
edge and real-world urgency that are the hallmark of Alternative
Shakespeares. This volume is essential reading for students and
scholars of Shakespeare who seek an understanding of current and
future directions in this ever-changing field. Contributors
include: Kate Chedgzoy, Mary Thomas Crane, Lukas Erne, Diana E.
Henderson, Rui Carvalho Homem, Julia Reinhard Lupton, Willy Maley,
Patricia Parker, Shankar Raman, Katherine Rowe, Robert Shaughnessy,

and efficiency while respecting privacy and individual liberty.
From police officers to corporations to intelligence agencies,
surveillance law is tasked with striking this difficult and
delicate balance. That challenge is compounded by ever-changing
technologies and evolving social norms. Following the revelations

is intense interest among policymakers, business leaders,
attorneys, academics, students, and the public regarding legal,
technological, and policy issues relating to surveillance. This
Handbook documents and organizes these conversations, bringing
together some of the most thoughtful and impactful contributors to
contemporary surveillance debates, policies, and practices. Its
pages explore surveillance techniques and technologies; their value
for law enforcement, national security, and private enterprise;
their impacts on citizens and communities; and the many ways
societies do - and should - regulate surveillance.
