How does theory, whether it takes an empirical, humanistic, or rhetorical/critical approach, help communication scholars make sense of our world and the problems we encounter in contemporary society? This text inspires students' interest in applying theories to communication problems we encounter in today's ever-evolving world. The book moves beyond theory and metatheory to address how new media, engaged democratic citizenship, and deconstructing messages in a post-truth world can deepen students' application of theory to advocate for social change.
