Everyday Encounters: An Introduction to Interpersonal Communication (Wadsworth Series in Communication Studies)

Rating:
Summary: Good Book
Review: I think at times, this book tends to over-state things and sometimes the means are unclear. In the 4th Edition, there are examples to illustrate means, which helps with understandings.

If you've read any of Julia T. Wood's other communication books, one thing that always sticks out on your head is how she talks about Robbie. She doesn't just say her husband. (This led to a long talk in my interpersonal communication class.)

I think, and by no fault of Wood's, that universities focus on her books, and the students don't get a broader view of communication.
