This collection brings together ten of the most distinguished
feminist scholars whose work has been celebrated for its excellence
in helping to lay the foundation of feminist communication and
media research. This edited volume features contributions by the
first ten renowned communication and media scholars that have
received the Teresa Award for the Advancement of Feminist
Scholarship from the Feminist Scholarship Division (FSD) of the
International Communication Association (ICA): Patrice M.
Buzzanell, Meenakshi Gigi Durham, Radha Sarma Hegde, Dafna Lemish,
Radhika Parameswaran, Lana F. Rakow, Karen Ross, H. Leslie Steeves,
Linda Steiner, and Angharad N. Valdivia. These distinguished
scholars reflect on the contributions they have made to different
subfields of media and communication scholarship, and offer
invaluable insight into their own paths as feminist scholars. They
each reflect on matters of power, agency, privilege, ethics,
intersectionality, resilience, and positionality, address their own
shortcomings and struggles, and look ahead to potential future
directions in the field. Last but not least, they come together to
discuss the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women, marginalized
people, and vulnerable populations, and to underline the crucial
need for feminist communication and media scholarship to move
beyond Eurocentrism toward an ethics of care and global feminist
positionality. A comprehensive and inspiring resource for students
and scholars of feminist media and communication studies.

Feminist Approaches to Media Theory and Research tackles the
breadth and depth of feminist perspectives in the field of media
studies through essays and research that reflect on the present and
future of feminist research and theory at the intersections of
women, gender, media, activism, and academia. The volume includes
original chapters on diverse topics illustrating where theorization
and research currently stand with regard to the politics of gender
and media, what work is being done in feminist theory, and how
feminist scholarship can contribute to our understanding of gender
as a mediated experience with implications for our contemporary
global society. It opens for discussion how the research, theory,
and interventions challenge concepts of gender in mediated
discourses and practices and how these fit into the evolving state
of contemporary feminisms. Contributors engage with discussions
about contemporary feminisms as they are understood in media theory
and research, particularly in a field that has changed rapidly in
the last decades with digital communication tools and through
cross-disciplinary work. Overall, the book illustrates how the
politics of gender operate within the current media landscapes and
how feminist theorizing shapes academic inquiry of these
landscapes.

Through a fusion of personal experience and art, the contributors
help us understand the lived realities of individuals with head and
neck cancer. Featuring original art from Ingrid Bachmann, Sean
Caulfield, Jude Griebel, Jill Ho-You, Heather Huston, and Bradley
Necyk, this collaborative, interdisciplinary exploration draws
together the voices of patients, health care practitioners,
researchers, and artists to offer a more holistic-more
human-understanding of cancer treatment and its aftermath.
Art-Medicine Collaborative Practice will resonate with people with
head or neck cancer as well as medical practitioners who aid in
their healing process. It is an important book for all those in the
health professions and medical humanities, as well as artists,
arts-based researchers, and those interested in the areas of health
and visual communication and knowledge translation. Contributors:
