"Introduction to the World of Communication" gives students a
strong introductory foundation in communication skills. Many texts
in the field focus on either fundamentals of communication or mass
communication. This anthology addresses both and provides useful
information about careers in the field.
The book begins with an overview of the fundamentals of
communication, moves into the history and development of
communication media, and concludes with a survey of dominant
communications professions.
Topics include:
- Language
- Nonverbal Communication
- Law and Ethics
- Mass Communication
- Emerging Technology
- Interpersonal Communication
Each chapter has tear-out reading questions that aid in evaluating
progress with and completion of the readings as well as in
preparing for exams. The discussion questions encourage dynamic
classroom interaction.
"Introduction to the World of Communication" can be used in
Introduction to Human Communication courses, as well as
Introduction to Mass Communication, and Introduction to
Communication Studies.
