More Description

Klaus Krippendorff is an influential figure in communication studies widely known for his book Content Analysis. Over the years, Krippendorff has made important contributions to a host of fundamental issues concerning communication scholarship: theory, epistemology, critical scholarship, second-order cybernetics, the construction of reality through language, design, and meaning. On Communicating assembles Krippendorff's most influential writings many of which are virtually unavailable today, appearing in journals, less accessible publications, conference proceedings, out-of-print book chapters, and articles in journals outside the communication field. In their totality, they provide a goldmine for communication students and scholars. Edited and with a critical introduction by Fernando Bermejo, this book introduces readers to Krippendorff's most important works.
