Yahya R. Kamalipour is a noted global media and communication scholar and current professor of communications and former chair of the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication at North Carolina A&T State University. For 28 years he served as professor and head of the Department of Communication and Creative Arts, Purdue University Northwest. His areas of interest and research include globalization, media impact, international communication, Middle East media, and new communication technologies. He has published eighteen books, including the acclaimed Global Communication: A Multicultural Perspective (3rd edition), Global Discourse in Fractured Times, and Media, Power, and Politics in the Digital Age. He has served as an international consultant for several colleges and universities and on advisory/editorial boards of a dozen prominent communication journals. He is founding director of the Global Media Journals network and founding president of the Global Communication Association. Kamalipour has visited over sixty-five countries and has been interviewed by major newspapers and broadcast media around the world. He earned his PhD in communication at the University of Missouri-Columbia.

With the help of unique perspectives from across the world, Kamalipour weaves a powerful narrative on how President Trump’s distorted vision of the US and its policies has fragmented America and added to global insecurity. Providing a kaleidoscope of different shades of the American image in the rest of the world under Trump's presidency, the book is a must-read for both the scholars and practitioners of media, international relations, politics, culture, law, and psychology.
