<p>"The second edition of <i>The Handbook of Communication Ethics</i> comprises an invaluable resource for navigating today’s complex ethical landscape. Authored by a diverse group of contributors, this timely volume delivers a dynamic exploration of both foundational theories and cutting-edge issues. It boldly addresses the global crisis in communication ethics, where political, cultural, and technological forces threaten truth, dialogue, and social justice. It aptly confronts contemporary ethical complexities such as AI, DEI, environmentalism, misinformation, and disability studies. More than just a reference, this handbook is a call to action, urging us to reshape communication ethics and foster fresh research and practices.”</p><p><b>Brenda J. Allen</b>, <i>Professor Emerita, University of Colorado Denver, USA</i></p><p>“An extraordinarily rich resource, this handbook offers a wealth of insights, combining needed explanations with intellectual challenges. In our ethically difficult world, every communication scholar, indeed every communicator, will want this volume by their side.”</p><p><b>Sonia Livingstone</b>, <i>Digital Futures for Children Centre, LSE, UK</i></p><p>“While the first edition of <i>The Handbook of Communication Ethics</i> theorized the intricate relationships between communication, power, and ethics and the dialectical tensions between theory and practice, this second edition takes the discussion much deeper into exploring the new and emerging aspects of communication ethics that confound contemporary decision-making processes. The well-curated volume of thought-provoking chapters presents novel and non-traditional perspectives on communication ethics in an age of blurred lines between real and AI-driven simulated interactions or indeed of polarized understandings of truth, humanity, and justice. This exciting new book is a must-read for scholars, practitioners, and philosophers in the broader domain of media and communication.”</p><p><b>Debashish Munshi</b>, <i>University of Waikato, New Zealand</i></p><p>“An excellent reference book considering emerging ethical issues and different perspectives for engaging them. The volume is representative of differing conceptions of ethics and the ways contemporary ethical issues are experienced in different areas of the world. The 27 essays are offered by authors of diverse backgrounds and areas of expertise. I appreciate the inclusion of new voices and the direct attention to the contemporary complexities of power dynamics, new technologies, colonialization, and culture wars as experienced in the various communication contexts from the most personal to mass and mediated communication. The essays are conceptually nuanced and often contain helpful detailed case studies. Many go beyond analysis and critique to provide useful alternative practices to be considered. The volume is incredibly ambitious and managed well, posing insights and lots of spaces for productive discussions.”</p><p><b>Stanley Deetz, </b><i>Professor Emeritus, University of Colorado at Boulder, USA</i></p>
