DESCRIPTION: Packed with contemporary examples, cutting-edge research, and accessible writing, "Interplay" helps students apply insights from scholarship to everyday life. While highlighting the breadth of interpersonal communication research and theory, "Interplay" also gives students the practical skills they need to improve their own relationships.
This new edition of "Interplay" is the most contemporary text available. The first chapter highlights masspersonal and multimodal communication, setting the stage for integration of social media and mediated communication throughout the book. Expanded discussions of intersectionality, code-switching, disability studies, and gender and language emphasize the role of culture and identity in shaping interactions. Every chapter is full of updated features, including "Focus on Research" and "Dark Side of Communication" boxes.
