Synopsis
Our ability to interact skillfully with others will influence the development of our professional and personal lives. Also, the way in which we communicate with others is affected by today's media and technological innovations. Interpersonal interactions are also influenced by culture and gender. Written by world-famous speakers, Contacts is based on these three premises and offers practical techniques readers can use to be successful communicators in today's ever-changing society.This book gives readers the tools they need to communicate effectively both when they interact with individuals from their own culture and those from diverse cultures. It also explores ways technology and the media affect our interpersonal communications. Topics include: understanding interpersonal communications, self-concept, gender, the media and technology, nonverbal communication, relationship basics, intimacy and distance, and more., This text introduces, explores, and celebrates the central role interpersonal communication plays in personal and professional relationships. A rich, interactive pedagogy engages students in relevant issues and themes, from the impact of mediated communication--particularly online--to the influence of gender and culture on interpersonal interactions. New concepts are supported by the anecdotal experiences of professionals, literary excerpts, and a number of other box features:

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

    I ordered three items from this seller, and one was damaged in transit (the seller is not at fault for this). However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.

    Reasonable price for a hardcover children's book, printed on quality, thick, glossy paper. No photo of item on listing, which was a bit lazy (even if it is a low-cost one). Packaging fine, mailed the following day, and postal costs included tracking. Arrived in good time, and with only minor cosmetic damage to the cover. Greatly appreciate it when sellers take the time to treat a low-cost order with care.
