With its unique skill-building approach, Interpersonal Communication provides you with the knowledge and practice you need to make effective choices as communicators in today's rapidly changing, technologically advanced, and diverse society. Rather than "telling" you how to communicate, authors Richard L. West and Lynn H. Turner integrate skill sets in each chapter so you can apply what you learn to your own lives. Rich with current examples and coverage of technology, social media, and diversity, this new Fifth Edition makes clear connections among theory, skills, and the situations we all encounter daily.
