Reflections on Feminist Communication and Media Scholarship

"Social media is both a driver of disinformation and polarisation and a potential tool for building more peaceful and resilient societies.　This book is a must-read for anyone interested in learning how social media is upending conflict dynamics worldwide, from fragile states to longstanding democracies, and—most importantly—what policymakers, the private sector and civil society collectively can do about it."– Uzra Zeya, CEO of the Alliance for Peacebuilding

"In this book, local researchers from 13 countries map the impacts of social media technologies on their contexts; an important read for tech companies, governments and civil society peacebuilders." – Michaela Ledesma and Helena Puig Larrauri, Directors and Co-founders of Build Up

"The rule of law, truth, democracy, privacy and civil liberties are under threat all around the world. This book explains the particular role of social media in fuelling these negative processes. It demonstrates how such media exploit personal, social and political vulnerabilities to generate fearful citizens. The subsequent politics of fear, intolerance and domination generate political paralysis and subjugation. The dynamics of these processes are examined theoretically but more importantly are illustrated by 13 insightful case studies from all around the world. These cases demonstrate that the challenges are national in consequence but global in scope. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how to utilise social media for good in order to protect inclusive, tolerant and accountable political institutions at national and global levels." – Kevin P. Clements, Emeritus Professor of the University of Otago; Director of the Toda Peace Institute

Can you see a figure without a background? Can you understand a person without the situation? Can you appreciate a mind without seeing its world? This book says 'no' in answer to these questions, and suggests instead that the study of psychology must adopt a new maneuver--a thoroughgoing vision of mind as a contextualized and contextualizing engine. The distinguished contributors to this volume offer a new vision of mind by daring to explore it in context.--Daniel M. Wegner, PhD, Department of Psychology, Harvard UniversityThe mind is on the loose, no longer stuffed inside the skull! Read all about it in this compelling volume from leaders in the fields of social, cultural, cognitive, and personality psychology and neuropsychology. Heralding a major paradigm shift, The Mind in Context is a highly readable explanation of how the mind extends into the world and why context is an active ingredient of mind. Thoughts, emotions, attitudes, selves, identities, and personalities are not internal entities that control behavior; instead, they emerge in mutual and reciprocal relations between individuals and their environments. An excellent contribution for students of psychology at all levels and for anyone who wants to understand how and why context matters.--Hazel Rose Markus, PhD, Davis-Brack Professor in the Behavioral Sciences, Department of Psychology, Stanford UniversityRevolutions in thought occur when diverse investigators converge on the same insight. In The Mind in Context, a stellar group of scientists explain how phenomena from the genetic and hormonal to the social and cultural reflect processes that are embedded, embodied, and situated. Sixteen readable chapters lead to one overarching conclusion--that the mind we&#8217;ve been studying as a noun is probably a verb.--Gerald L. Clore, PhD, Commonwealth Professor of Psychology, University of Virginia-Anyone interested in learning the new twists that are taking person-situation research to the next level will want to read this book. 'Personologists' will find much to explore in Walter Mischel and Yuichi Shoda's fine contribution....Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals.--Choice, 11/3/2010

"This scholarly work offers critical review of what family literacy looks like and the many programs designed to promote it. A panoptic work spanning the history of family literacy in a manner which is accessible and erudite, it traces family literacy from early studies in the 1980s to present day, opening up new avenues to explore."
-- Cathy Nutbrown, University of Sheffield, UK
"This book is important, relevant, and purposeful. It represents an engaging plethora of groundbreaking work about and with all families across various spheres of influence. The authors force us to question how the changing ways and roles of family literacy, its programs, and practices have not only changed the dynamics of how we "do," "talk about," and "study" family literacy, but also how family literacy can equip families to flourish in research, practice, and policy across schools, communities, programs, even during a pandemic."
--Tisha Lewis Ellison, University of Georgia, 2022 Divergent Award for Excellence in Literacy in a Digital Age Research

"In this book, Lynch and Prins braid together historical and contemporary research, theory, and practice in early childhood, adult education, and intergenerational literacy. The authors shine a light on elements of successful family literacy initiatives such as digital and critical literacies, an expanded understanding of family structures, and a much-needed equity lens. This is an important read for those seeking to build bridges between families and schools to strengthen literacy achievement."

"The Art and Science of Expert Witness Testimony is a must read. Dr. Postal examines a diverse literature and collates fascinating stories by seasoned experts, judges and lawyers to remind us that effective expert testimony requires more than substantive expertise. Rather, experts must understand the jury as active participants in the courtroom, not as passive recipients of information. Trials, in this sense, are dialogic, collaborative, and iterative, not sterile classroom lectures. Most important, Dr. Postal explains that language is more than words. Experts communicate in many ways, including how they dress, walk to the witness stand, and how well they manage a variety of other non-verbal communications. Dr. Postal skillfully marries the substantive and performative in providing a groundbreaking descriptive account of what makes an effective expert witness." —Ronald S. Sullivan Jr., Harvard Law School, USA
"A master class for expert witnesses in understanding the various needs and perspectives of each player in the unfolding courtroom production." —The Honorable Judge Ed Washington, II (retired), USA
"Meticulously researched and　filled with a vast number of verbatim contributions from all the players in the courtroom context, this follow up to　Testimony that Sticks addresses thoroughly the personal relationships of experts to jurors, attorneys and judges—an area often scanted in discussions of forensic functioning. It is difficult to imagine a more extensive　discussion of this critical subject." —Thomas Gutheil, MD, Harvard Medical School, USA
"Neuropsychologists receive extensive training on how to conduct assessments, derive conclusions, and present findings in a written report.　 But virtually no hands-on education is offered regarding how to package our findings in a way that is useful and compelling to juries.　 In her book, The Art and Science of Expert Witness Testimony, Dr. Postal makes the case that the presentation style and manner of the 'messenger' (i.e., expert witness), and not just our scientifically-grounded 'message,' require careful focus and consideration.　 She offers the perspectives of multiple judges, attorneys, and neuropsychological expert witnesses as to what constitutes effective testimony, including how to make one’s testimony vivid and memorable, such as through use of metaphors and analogies to convey complex statistical and other concepts to juries.　 She discusses how to recognize, and manage, the emotions that are provoked when opinions are attacked in cross-examination, and how to 'reframe' cross-examination questions as an opportunity to help clarify our opinions for juries.　 Ultimately the book feels like sitting down with seasoned mentors who have provided access to their cumulative experience in navigating the legal arena." —Kyle Boone, PhD, Alliant International University, USA
"As a forensic pathologist my world revolves around a courtroom. Sadly, training in expert testimony is lacking 　and I’ve often wished for a concise guide. Karen Postal, through her detailed interviews, has filled that gap. Karen has provided the playbook for scientists and lawyers needed to deliver powerful, effective, and honest testimony."　—Peter Cummings, MD, Boston University, USA
