Public Dialogue and Deliberation: A communication perspective for public engagement practitioners By Oliver Escobar Public Policy Network (University of Edinburgh)

This free booklet seeks to speak to people involved in creating public forums for meaningful conversations. It provides an understanding of face-to-face communication that will prove invaluable to public engagement practitioners on the ground.

This new book, edited by Anne Marie Bissessar of the University of the West Indies, aims to present a set of perspectives that are sound and useful and it seeks to stimulate scholars and students and at the same time to inform practitioners of the myth that governance is a perfect method of administration to be applied in all countries, irrespective of their levels of development or the impact and experience of globalization in various countries . This book will certainly bring a conclusion to the ongoing debate of whether “Governance Is for Everyone.” (Imprint: Nova)
