About the Author :
Caleb T. Carr is associate professor in the School of Communication at Illinois State University. His research addresses how new media alter communicative processes, including how social media are used for organizational uncertainty reduction, in group collaborations, and to create and maintain identity online.

Review :
Carr draws on CMC's rich historical and theoretical foundations to orient students to the diversity of forms and functions of online interaction. With clear, comprehensive, and easy-to-understand sections, this book will be of interest to both those who teach CMC as well as those wanting a well thought-out initiation into it. The most comprehensive overview of the field of CMC-with classic theories from the early days of the internet to phenomena like social media. A great resource for students! This is an engaging, funny, student-centered textbook that fulfills a desperately needed niche-the examination of communication and technology in our social lives. Caleb T. Carr has done the hard work for you. Computer-Mediated Communication, Second Edition, takes care to detail the theory and practice of computer-mediated communication (CMC) in various contexts. It will drive theoretically informed conversations in your course! This book masterfully synthesizes a large and diverse body of computer-mediated communication studies across multiple contexts, including intrapersonal, interpersonal, organizational, and political communication.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
