Reviews
This volume offers a rich resource for understanding the complexity of communication processes and how we might 'act wisely in(to) critical moments.' For the first time, the theory and practice of the Coordinated Management of Meaning is compiled within one volume, moving us toward generative understandings of how we can facilitate the creation of better social worlds . 'Communication is consequential' and the contributors to this volume have made that abundantly clear. -- Sheila McNamee, Professor of Communication, University of New Hampshire and Vice President, the Taos Institute
This book is bottled lightning for practitioners who not only want a good theory as grounding for their work, but also want a theory that listens to and engages with practices of all kinds. CMM is that theory, and communication theorists who want to see how theory and practice can be dialogic partners can stop looking. -- Arthur Jensen, Senior Associate Dean, Syracuse University
