Despite its inherent interdisciplinarity, the Communication discipline has remained an almost entirely anthropocentric enterprise. This book represents early and prominent forays into the subject of human-animal communication from a Communication Studies perspective, an effort that brings a discipline too long defined by that fallacy of division, human or nonhuman, into conversation with animal studies, biosemiotics, and environmental communication, as well as other recent intellectual and activist movements for reconceptualizing relationships and interactions in the biosphere. This book is a much-needed point of entry for future scholarship on animal-human communication, as well as the whole range of communication possibilities among the more-than-human world. It offers a groundbreaking transformation of higher education by charting new directions for communication research, policy formation, and personal and professional practices involving animals.

"Plecs anthology is organized around three ideas that deeply engage the reader, complicity, implication, and coherence. [...] In addition to implicating the reader, Perspectives on Human-Animal Communication would be a great text to teach from at any level. [...] The issues raised on these pages are imperative for creating a sustainable and humane world." --Julie Kalil Schutten, Environmental Communication "Emily Plecs collection of essays on human-animal communication presents a variety of views on the borderlands where species meet and interact, and how humans communicate on behalf of animals, about animals, and sometimes with animals. These interactions present a rich tapestry of persuasive efforts some performed by agents, others by mediators for those perceived as voiceless in the mainstream of human communications theory." --Alex C. Parrish, Journal for Critical Animal Studies
