Über diesen Titel

Críticas

“A refreshing introduction to communication as a viable academic discipline, while not neglecting the skill components needed by our students.”

(Laurie Diles)

“A comprehensive, student-focused exploration of the complexity of human communication”

(Darrell Mullins)

“Clean, clear and crisp! Easy to read and filled with solid content.” (Greg Scott)

“The book is innovative in many aspects, and thus presents a valuable addition to existing literature I use for teaching and research.”

(Dr. Martina Topic)

“This textbook is a great option for those who understand human communication as a discipline that is not codependent of digital platforms and computer-mediated communication.”

(Manuel G. Avilés-Santiago)

“This is a thorough and well researched work on the subject of communication. It is written in a conversational tone but does a good job of breaking down somewhat difficult topics to their base components. It uses real world examples to illustrate some of the more advanced theories. It also asks questions about the subject matter that would require the student, who is used to regurgitating facts to actually read, ponder and understand.”

(Jeanean Eldridge)

Reseña del editor

Steve Duck and David T McMahan expertly combine theory and application to introduce students to fundamental communication concepts and master practical communication skills, such as listening and critical thinking, using technology to communicate, understanding nonverbal communication, creating persuasive strategies and managing group conflict. This edition offers practical instruction to improve a student's ability to effectively communicate interpersonally, in groups, in interviews, and speaking through presentations. Throughout the book, students receive the tools they need to critically analyze their situation, link communication theory to their own experiences, and improve their communication and public speaking skills in the process.
