Product Description: Book by JOHANNESEN RICHARD, ALLEN RON, LINKUGEL WILMER A, BRYAN FERALD J

Highly praised through four editions for its comprehensiveness, this valuable synthesis of key perspectives in communication ethics has become a standard in the field. Johannesen's discussions of theory and practice have application in a wide range of communication contexts--interpersonal, small group, public, and mass. Without altering the structure and focus of the acclaimed previous edition, Johannesen integrates new topics--including morality/integrity, Ross's prima facie duties, postmodernism and the self as ethical agent, employee perceptions of workplace ethics, transcultural values, and Internet ethics--with enduring, vital perspectives. Today's readers can assimilate these thought-provoking insights to create their own judgments and choose their own options in a variety of communication experiences. Johannesen positions questions to stimulate critical thinking throughout the topical discussions. He also offers an appendix that contains relevant case studies, providing excellent illustrations for the concepts previously discussed, as well as a comprehensive list of articles, books, videotapes, and Web sites for further exploration.
