Overcoming Social Polarization

Reviews / Votes

With political, cultural and social contestations at a fever pitch, Neu's book commendably realizes its goal of providing a rhetorical detente in an ever-increasing polarized world. As theoretically sound as it is practical, Neu offers a sanguine and aspirational approach to maintaining democracy through dialogic civility. * Adrienne E. Hacker Daniels, Professor Emerita of Communication and Rhetorical Studies, Illinois College, USA * Neu's work on communication ethics and deliberative democracy in our 'post-truth' era is a must read for anyone seeking to understand the causes of and solution to the hyperpolarized public discourse. * Anthony M. Wachs, Associate Professor of Rhetoric, Communication Ethics & the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, Duquesne University of the Holy Spirit, USA * In this book, Jessica L. Neu skillfully tackles the difficult subject of how to bring individuals together in conversation in a time of immense political polarization. This is a book that will get you thinking! * Valerie Lynn Schrader, Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences, Penn State Schuylkill, USA. *
