the saGe Handbook of political Communication is an authoritative and comprehensive survey of political
communication drawing together a team of the world's leading scholars to provide a state-of-the-art review that

communication, such as the media industry, new media, technology, and political systems; Part II takes a grassroots
perspective of the influences of social networks, real and online, on political communication; Part III discusses
methodological advances in political communication research; Part IV focuses on power and how it is conceptualized
in political communication; and Part V provides an international, regional, and comparative understanding of political
communication in its various contexts.

Students FIFth edItIon
Inge Bell • Bernard McGrane • John Gunderson, all at Chapman University • Terri L. Anderson,
University of California, Los Angeles
This edition of an underground classic marks out new territory in college participatory education. Its purpose remains
the same: to encourage students to educate themselves by calling their attention to the college experience as a whole
—the personal, social, intellectual and spiritual demands and opportunities presented by college life. In a personable
and refreshingly straightforward style, the authors' critical discussion of academic life distinguishes between learning
the institutional rules of higher education and internalizing those rules, demystifies professors and teaching assistants
by discussing their institutional roles and incentives, and invites students to take responsibility for, and make the most
of, their educational experiences.

This book covers the key concepts central to understanding recent developments in media and communications
studies. Wide-ranging in scope and accessible in style it sets out a useful, clear map of the important theories,
methods, and debates. The entries critically explore the limits of a key concept as much as the traditions that define it.
