Summary: Good Intoduction to Communication
Comment: This book breaks down the fundamentals of communication in detail to describe all aspects of verbal and non-verbal communication. You'll be surprised to realize the little things about communication we all take for granted. I especially enjoyed the chapter describing what brings people closer and separates them in interpersonal relationships. A few of the chapters did seem quite boring and unimportant though. I feel the idea of this book is to discover how we view ourselves in society and the perception we gain through the people we meet and are associated with. Also, this book will give you a better understanding of how to interpret people through their use of verbal and non-verbal communication.

Summary: A disgrace to the field of communication
Comment: I must attest that I purchased this book when it first came up, expecting to be enlightened, or at the very least mildly INFORMED about what the fundamentals of interpersonal communication are and how to apply them in real life. The only thing I was able to grasp from this book is how to never, I repeat, NEVER buy a book whose co-authors are married. I have never been exposed to more ridiculously cheesy, gab-me-if-you-must nonsense about authors' personal lives in my life! They rarely took the time to tie it in with the concepts either! What's going on here? Do Pearson and Nelson actually think we want to read about their "love for eachother" and how strong it is? Sure, I'll be the first to commend them on their undying, unconditional commitment to each other, but I could've done that being 55.05 richer. Not worth the money, unless you're into paying for exactly what you DON'T want to learn.

Rating: 4
Summary: Easy to comprehend and useful subject matter
Comment: I have read most of this book for my Interpersonal Communication class that Dr. Nelson teaches. It is the best text book that i've read to date. Great examples of the different types of commucation makes this book actually helpful in real world communication.
