Mastering Communication in Contemporary America

Résumé du livre

This text discusses the nature and application of the principles of human communication. It addresses both interpersonal and mass communication, and explores critical similarities and differences between animal and human communication. The first eight chapters provide students with a strong foundation of the concepts and research-supported theories. The second half of the book uses this foundation to focus on practical applications including influencing others, coping with conflicts and speaking before a group.
