A capstone-level map of communication inquiry, application, and professional practice
Designed for senior Communication capstone courses, this second edition organizes the discipline into four connected areas: its identity and history, the methods used to study communication, applications across communication contexts and functions, and professional development. It can support either a broad senior-year synthesis or an introductory graduate-level orientation, with material adaptable to conceptual, project-based, and skills-based course formats. Updated chapters extend the scope to public relations, changing communication technologies and processes, AI-related plagiarism questions, and critical and interpretive approaches to sex and gender. The book frames communication not only as an academic field of inquiry but also as a body of knowledge with practical career implications.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Graduating Communication students completing a capstone course
- Graduate students seeking an introduction to communication as a discipline
- Instructors planning conceptual, project-based, or skills-based capstone courses

The Communication Capstone: The Communication Inquiry and Theory Experience is the first textbook explicitly designed for graduating seniors in a Communication Capstone course, whether taught in small or large sections, or taught as a conceptual review or as a project- or skills-based course. It is an exemplary resource to provide either a senior-level overview or a graduate-level introduction to the discipline.
The textbook first investigates the identity and origins of the communication discipline, then addresses the methodologies underpinning how we come to understand communication, followed by an in-depth look at the application of these ideas within various communication contexts and functions. The final segment considers the practical implications of this knowledge regarding career paths and professional development. Chapters are authored by active, well-published, and award-winning scholars and teachers in their respective areas of study.
The second edition features new content on public relations, the evolution and development of communication processes and technologies, the implications of AI on issues of plagiarism, critical and interpretive perspectives toward sex and gender, and more.
