The text presents a broad range of scholarly and popular articles drawn from several disciplines, including communication, psychology, and philosophy, all chosen for their understandability and practical applicability. Within these readings are thought-provoking discussions of interpersonal contact, identity-management, verbal and nonverbal cues, perception, listening, assertiveness and self-disclosure, family communication, intimacy and social support, defensiveness and hurtful communication, conflict management, culture, and dialogue. Together, the readings emphasize the social and relational elements of human communication, the overlapping influence of verbal and nonverbal cues, the prominence of culture, and the close connection between quality of communication and quality of life"-- Provided by publisher Interpersonal communication Stewart, John Robert 0 0 0 0 20000 20000 2019-09-04 232.77 0 BF637.C45 B75 2012 0000065527 2019-09-04 00:00:00 1 232.77 2019-09-04 OPEN VIRTUA40 61869 61875 VTLSSORT0080*0200*0400*0900*2450*2500*2600*3000*5000*5050*5200*6500*7000*9992
