Reviews

[Holtzhausen's] new book, Public Relations As Activism: Postmodern Approaches to Theory & Practice, serves to both encapsulate current thinking and moves the conversation forward, in particular by looking at the use of public relations through the years as a means of activism. With a clear and accessible approach, she discusses the application of postmodern theories and perspectives in the context of some bracingly diverse topics, ranging from ethics, history and organisations to power, knowledge and research. - Communication Director
