race theory, queer theory, critical ethnography, and narrative
methodology, among others. Utilizing a diverse array of theoretical
and methodological approaches within critical intercultural
communication research, this collection is creatively engaging,

Through vivid and engaging narrative accounts, written and
collected by women, Women's Narratives of Health Disruption and
Illness: Within and Across Their Life Stories explores how women
experience the health disruptions and illnesses that span their
lives. The collection examines how women's broader and ongoing life
stories impact and are impacted by health disruptions and
illnesses. Organized into three parts, the chapters explore
"Beginnings" in which health disruptions and illnesses impact early
life, motherhood, and where early choices create the origins of
health issues that impact later life; "Middles" which explores
health experiences in and around middle age, or from the standpoint
in middle-age looking back and forth; and "Endings" which explores
narratives of ageing and end of life communication. Personal,
revealing, and often beautiful, the women's narratives featured in
this book will invite the reader into the stories and lives of
others, and toward the reflection, learning, and personal
transformation that comes from truly connecting with the
experiences of others. This book will be helpful for scholars of
communication, health, women's studies, family studies, and
sociology.

Pedagogies of Post-Truth explores the national and international
political developments in what has been called a post-truth
society; specifically, in which conservative groups target media
outlets claiming fabrication of news and that the veracity of
evidence-based reporting should be questioned. Truth has been
reduced to the validation of opinions instead of the presentation
of scientific facts. This collection responds to these issues by
initiating a scholarly dialogue about teaching in the era of
post-truth in which research-based findings that do not align with
political viewpoints are judged, criticized, and often described as
"fake." Contributors evaluate the pedagogical challenges of
post-truth discourse and how post-truth messages negatively affect
instructors and students. By highlighting ways instructors and
students can resist the hegemony of post-truth, this book creates a
dialogue among scholars, illustrates the challenges, and offers
pedagogical techniques to discuss "post-truth," the role of the
educator, the role of media, and the role of other story-makers of
our society.

The Political Language of Food addresses why the language used in
the production, marketing, selling, and consumption of food is
inherently political. Food language is rarely neutral and is often
strategically vague, which tends to serve the interests of powerful
entities.Boerboom and his contributors critique the language of
food-based messages and examine how such language-including idioms,
tropes, euphemisms, invented terms, etc.-serves to both mislead and
obscure relationships between food and the resulting community,
health, labor, and environmental impacts. Employing diverse
methodologies, the contributors examine on a micro-level the
textual and rhetorical elements of food-based language itself. The
Political Language of Food is both timely and important and will
appeal to scholars of media studies, political communication, and
rhetoric.

Whiteness, Pedagogy, Performance is unique in bringing together
these three important topics in the context of communication
teaching and scholarship with an eye toward interdisciplinary
perspectives. In fourteen chapters, the leading whiteness scholars
in the field of communication analyze the process of teaching and
learning and the complicated intersections of whiteness, racial
identity, and cross-racial dialogue. Toward these ends, these
essays offer a variety of theoretical and practical approaches to
the analysis of identity construction, racial privilege, and
pedagogies toward equality and social justice. Above all, for
teachers, students, and anyone interested in these issues, this
book is a challenge to re-think the ways our curricula, texts,
disciplinary boundaries, and moreover, how our interactions and
performances re-inscribe racial privileges. Chapters provide
innovative and accessible analyses of teaching and learning that
will appeal to students, teachers, administrators, and anyone
interested in how race works.
