provides a clear overview of interpersonal communication theory and principles balanced with practical suggestions on how students can apply these principles to become better communicators. Using a student-friendly approach, authors Steven Beebe, Susan Beebe, and Mark Redmond help students see the importance of becoming other-oriented: a mindful process of considering the thoughts, needs, feelings, and values of others, rather than focusing exclusively on oneself. Thoroughly updated to reflect the latest developments in the field, the 9th Edition offers fresh coverage of the impact of social media on interpersonal communication today.
