 Rating:  - Slow Read But Worth the Waitthis book is an excellent source for information on nonverbal communication. it presents some ideas in a way that I have never heard them discussed before. this book is a little difficult to read through if you are not interested in the subject, but the quality of the information is wonderful.

That said, they do a marvelous job of collecting and reporting on a wealth of valuable insights. Rating: - Classic work in the field of nonverbal communicationDr. Knapp has been a distinguished scholar in the field of communication for the past 35 years. This is a very small sampling of his honors: He is a Fellow of the International Communication Association and has served as its President. He received the Distinguished Scholar Award from the Speech Communication Association in l993 and served as President of that association in l989-90.
