The Routledge Handbook of Communication and Bullying provides an
essential and unique analysis of bullying and anti-bullying efforts
from a communication-based perspective. Drawing on communication
theory and compelling empirical research, this volume offers
valuable international perspectives of this pervasive concern,
examined within varied contexts. In addition to providing exemplary
data-based scholarship, the Handbook is comprised of first-hand
accounts of those who have been bullied, adding an integral
pragmatic and complementary dimension to the topic. This anthology
serves as a useful resource for educators, administrators,
managers, and other stakeholders who are challenged with this
difficult social issue. Responding to the various charges emanating
from the National Communication Association's (NCA) Anti-Bullying
Project, this collection constitutes a valuable foundation from
which to draw as conversations about bullying continue around the
globe.
Few figures have dominated a nation's destiny as much as Marshal
Tito of former Yugoslavia. For nearly thirty years he held together
mutually hostile religious groups in a deeply divided country, but
his death in 1980 rekindled centuries-old hatreds and by 1992
Yugoslavia ceased to exist. In this revealing biography, Richard
West questions the full impact of Tito's reign of power and his
implicit responsibility for the ensuing violent, bloody war in
Bosnia.
'Excellent ... I recommend his book for those who already know
about Yugoslavia and want food for thought about the future.' David
Owen, "Sunday Times"

""'Admirable ... Carefully researched and extremely readable.'

""'A passionate book, in which West's historical sense is
interlaced with his own very intimate knowledge of Yugoslavia from
the late 1940s on and of the poignancy of subsequent] events.'

With its unique skill-building approach, Interpersonal
Communication Fifth Edition provides students with the knowledge
and practice they need to make effective choices as communicators
in today's rapidly changing, technologically-advanced, and diverse
society. Rather than "telling" students how to communicate, authors
Richard L. West and Lynn H. Turner integrate skill sets in each
chapter so students can apply what they learn to their own lives.
Rich with current examples and coverage of technology, social
media, and diversity, this practical text makes clear connections
among theory, skills, and the situations we all encounter on a
daily basis.
Museums -- along with books, newspapers, and Wild West shows in the
19th century, movies and television in the 20th -- have shaped our
perceptions of American Indians. How have museums' representations
of Indians influenced society's understanding of them? How are
Indians presented in exhibitions and programs today? What new
directions will museums take in the 21st century? This book is the
result of a symposium organized by the Smithsonian Institution's
National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI). It brings together
six prominent museum professionals -- Native and non-Native -- to
examine the ways in which Indians and their cultures have been
represented by museums in North America and to present new
directions museums are already taking.
Traditional museum exhibitions of Native American art and
culture often represented only the past, ignoring the living Native
voice. Today, museums have begun to incorporate the Native
perspective in their displays. Even more dramatic is the increasing
number of Indian-run museums, such as the Mille Lacs Indian Museum
in Minnesota and the Museum at Warm Springs in Oregon. These essays
explore the relationships being forged between museums and Native
communities to create new techniques for presenting Native American
culture. This publication will stimulate the discussions and
analyses that can lead to new partnerships and collaborations.

Prioritizing brevity and clarity, this textbook introduces the
study of communication through examples and applications of
communication in a variety of contexts. With a unique focus on
diversity and the impact of culture, each chapter opens with a case
study that identifies a communication challenge, which the chapter
addresses throughout, and concludes with questions that respond to
that challenge. A consistent, organized structure with numerous
features including fundamental issues, questions for understanding
and analysis, theoretical insight (examining a particular relevant
theory), and a skill set section, easily guides you through the
foundations of the study of communication. Cross-referencing
between chapters demonstrates the multidimensional nature of
communication and the everyday talk sections demonstrate how each
topic relates to technology, the workplace, or health issues.
Offering a wealth of diverse examples from students' personal,
professional, and online lives, this book teaches skills allowing
students from all academic backgrounds to understand communication.
This landmark publication brings Indigenous art to the fore with
the presentation of 280 objects from the Nelson-Atkins Museum's
rich collection. More than two-thirds of the volume's featured
masterworks-paintings, sculptures, drawings, regalia, ceramics,
textiles, and baskets-have never before appeared in publication.
Created by both known and unknown makers, these singular and
profound aesthetic achievements represent the traditions of
communities across the US and Canada in a continuum of visual
expression from pre-encounter to the present. Curator Gaylord
Torrence traces the evolution of the Nelson-Atkins holdings, which
have expanded significantly since 2002. Fundamental concepts for
understanding Native art as well as an overview of traditions from
across the United States and Canada guide readers through the
illustrations. Director Emeritur and Founding Director of the
Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian W. Richard West
Jr. (Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma) contributes a
compelling essay on the meanings of Native art. A final essay
brings forward the voices of twenty-two of the contemporary artists
represented in the collection.
