Book Description
This is a book about improving communication skills in a range of different settings. Instead of thinking about communication as the transmission of information from one person to another, this book shows that we ought to think about communication as a practical art of producing effects on others. Once we start to ask "What effect have I had?" then we are in a better position to improve our communication skills. In thinking about interpersonal communication, small group communication, writing, public speaking, and leadership through questions about the effects we produce on others anyone can significantly improve their communication competencies. Through one hundred small lessons this book provides practical tools to immediately be a better partner, teammate, writer, speaker, and leader.

Book Description
In Pragmatism, Democracy, and the Necessity of Rhetoric, Robert Danisch examines the search by America's first generation of pragmatists for a unique set of rhetorics that would serve the needs of a developing democracy. Digging deep into pragmatism's historical development, Danisch sheds light on its association with an alternative but significant and often overlooked tradition. He draws parallels between the rhetorics of such American pragmatists as John Dewey and Jane Addams and those of the ancient Greek tradition. Danisch contends that, while building upon a classical foundation, pragmatism sought to determine rhetorical responses to contemporary irresolutions. rhetoric, including pragmatism's rejection of philosophy with its traditional assumptions and practices.

Section 212 does not appear to have had much of an impact in the agencies and years that we examined, and its implementation has varied across and sometimes within the agencies. The statute gives agencies broad discretion to decide which of their rules require compliance guides, what has to be in the guides, how they are developed, when they have to be published, and how they are distributed to affected small entities. Using that discretion, an agency could legally exclude all of its rules from coverage by the statute, designate a previously published document as its small entity compliance guide, or develop and publish a guide with no input from small entities years after the covered rule takes effect. Some of the ineffectiveness and inconsistency in the implementation of section 212 are traceable to the broad discretion provided to agencies in the RFA regarding the term significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Although a single, rigid definition of this term may not be feasible, we believe that some additional clarity can be provided. Other problems with the compliance guide requirement are traceable to section 212 itself. We offer suggestions on how Congress may wish to amend the statute to make clear when agencies must prepare a compliance guide under section 212 and the meaning of key terms in the statute.
