Most communication research and most applications of that research acknowledge the process nature of comunication. However, the material following that acknowledgement conforms to traditional linear and static approaches treating communicatin as little more than printed text. This print paradigm persists despite repeated calls to explore the more dynamic nature of communication. In this seoond edition, the author updates and expands his argument that communication is a process analogous to the complexity in other livitn systems. Complexity theory models biological processes similara to how chaos theory treats physical and chemical processes.
The book begins with a review of philosophical and social psychological thought as a basis for explaining the mathematical and natural science models. The volume reviews a remarkable range of material stretching over three centuries.
This book deals with matters of embodiment and meaning—in other words, the essential components of what Continental thought, since Heidegger, has come to consider as “communication.” A critical theme of this book concerns the basic tenet that consciousness of one’s Self and one’s body is only possible through human relationship. This is, of course, the phenomenological concept of intersubjectivity. But rather than let this concept remain an abstraction by discussing it as merely a function of language and signs, this work attempts to explicate it empirically. That is, it discusses the manner in which—from infancy to childhood and adolescence (and the dawning of our sexual identities) through physical maturity and old age—we come to experience the ecstasy of what Merleau-Ponty has so poetically termed “flesh.” It is rarely clear what someone means when she or he uses the word “communication.” An important objective of this book is, thus, to advance understanding of what communication is. In academic discourse, “communication” has come to be understood in a number of contexts—some conflicting and overlapping—as a process, a strategy, an event, an ethic, a mode or instance of information, or even a technology. In virtually all of these discussions, the concept of communication is discussed as though the term’s meaning is well known to the reader. When communication is described as a process, the meaning of the term is held at an operational level—that is, in the exchange of information between one person and another, what must unambiguously be inferred is that “communication” is taking place. In this context, information exchange and communication become functionally synonymous. But as a matter of embodied human psychological experience, there is a world of difference between them. As such, this book attempts to fully consider the question of how we experience the event of human communication. The author offers a pioneering study that advances the raison d’être of the emergent field of “communicology,” while at the same time offering scholars of the human sciences a new way of thinking about embodiment and relational experience.
It is this dimension of being—of beingbefore-the-void—that best describes
Georges Bataille's concept of communication. It is a radical concept of
communication as eros, death, sensuality, and transgression. It is a remarkably
vivid and vital concept, but it is an idea that has yet to find its vocabulary reflected
in serious academic writing on the subject of communication. To think of
communication expressed as anything but an abstract function of mind and
culture (as, for example, ...
HUMAN COMMUNICATION: MOTIVATION, KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, Second Edition, features the collaborative work of recognized experts in the fields of communication and offers a unified approach to the basic processes of human communication backed by skill assessment. Beginning with the premise that all forms of communication have the potential to be viewed as competent depending on the context or situation, the text helps readers develop a framework for choosing among communication messages that will allow them to act competently. The theoretically based and skills-oriented framework emphasizes the basic themes of motivation, knowledge and skills across interpersonal communication, electronically mediated communication, small group communication, public speaking, and-new to the Second Edition-mass communication to help students become competent communicators in their own lives.
Communication. Sloane. had heard about how much fun chat rooms could be.
Given her interest in the television show The Apprentice, a chat room seemed a
natural wayof keeping up with the current buzz of the show. However, Sloane
had also heard that women tended to be in the minority in such chat rooms, and
as a result, got hit on by geeks and lonely guys who could not meet people any
other way. She decided to enter the chat room under an assumed male identity,
Ted, and ...
