Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This book offers a blend of theory and skills that readers can use to become "other-oriented"- mindfully aware of considering the thoughts, needs, and values of others. Fueled by the authors' conviction that "skills inform principles; principles inform skills," Interpersonal Communication: Relating to Others maintains a careful balance between theoretical and skills-oriented material. This book integrates an emphasis on diversity with theoretical and skills discussions. Examples are drawn from a variety of age and ethnic groups, and special boxes focus on gender and diversity issues. A chapter on intercultural communication supplements this integral material by relating it to the "other-oriented" approach. For anyone interested in improving their interpersonal communication, or understanding the topic better.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Delivered as Promised
Product arrived exactly as promised. It was a pleasure to do business with this seller.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - do not buy this
this came in a 3 ring binder format, encased in plastic, without a back cover, and a cardboard backing. i stress, do NOT buy this



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good book
I'll keep this short and simple. I own the book, and thus far is very helpful to explain the many facets of person to person communication. Lots of vocab words and ideas.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great interactive CD
The interactive CD includes websites, video clips, audio clips, and tests, that increase interest in the subject matter. It's fun.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Interpersonally...
...I read this book for an undergraduate class and thought it was very good. One problem-- the final chapter was too brief, they should have split it into three like the previous edition.
