Reviews

The contemporary communication discipline started as a splinter group sensitive to its external uniqueness and its internal differences. A Century of Communication Studies: The Unfinished Conversation is centrally concerned with how the discipline continues in that vein as a socially and ethically engaged intellectual enterprise. The studies assembled by editors Gehrke and Keith say a great deal about why the tensions of permanence and change, one and many are endemic to communication’s multi-faceted disciplinary dynamic. Gerard A. Hauser, University of Colorado Boulder
