The first textbook in a long time that 1) didn't make me cry trying to understand it, 2) actually was SUPER interesting!! and 3) didn't treat the students on the extremes of either insanely smart or absolutely clueless! I'm really glad my comm teacher assigned it!

It's a text book on communication theory. It's about as fun as it sounds. A bit of a dry read, but has the necessary information on communication theories, processes, and applications in the real world.

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Useful, applicable text on various theories and models of communication and their origins, applications, strengths, and shortcomings. Very well organized, very intuitive.

A great introductory text, very similar to "A First Look at Communication Theory" by Em Griffin. Nearly identical formats--which isn't bad. Very helpful book. Plenty of good diagrams, plus the occasional Calvin and Hobbes cartoon--how can you not like that?

Organized neatly, explains everything, wish there were more applied examples.
