In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project was supported by a book initiation grant from Georgia State University and by three summer grants from the Department of Communication at Georgia State. I am also indebted to my wife Pamela, who not only put up with my book-related schedule over the last few years, but was kind enough to read over the manuscript, give useful advice, and proofread. I was further aided over time by the wise counsel of my friend and former colleague Frank Tomasulo. Graduate assistants at Georgia have also been helpful, including particularly Timothy Burchfield. Other grad assistants who have made contributions include Miglena Sandmeier , Jeremy Wilson, and Redelia Shaw. Editor Jim Burr and the staff at the University of Texas Press also deserve high praise for their patience and many contributions along the way to bring this book to fruition.
