Written to share "herstories" with both women and men, Women Transforming Communications provides a one-of-a-kind account of the strategies for liberating communication systems from gender and cultural biases, especially in those areas where women and minorities are traditionally excluded because of limited and controlled access.

The renowned contributors to this reader fight fire with fire, using mass media communication such as newspaper, magazine, and television journalism, as well as communication research and scholarship to ensure full inclusion of women and minorities in all areas. A platform for feminist discourse on topics such as the military academy, pornography, grassroots communication, culturally diverse organizations, and courtroom justice, each chapter voices issues important to women entering the 21st century.

Brought together, these voices clamor thunderously for definitive and positive social change.
