Wait. . .What!? That's Not What I Meant: A Discussion of Interpersonal Communication

Combining a brisk bullet pointed format with the very best scholarship, ""Wait. . .What!? That's Not What I Meant"" offers a fresh approach to the traditional topics covered in introductory Interpersonal Communication texts. Topics are covered in a bright, breezy style with plenty of pop culture references and explanatory visuals that enhance understanding. The text takes a Socratic approach, asking questions rather than simply presenting information. This approach leaves the instructor free to fashion the material in a meaningful way for each individual class. Students will have a chance to use the text in class by engaging with the individual exercises, group projects, though experiments, debates and speaking opportunities that are embedded in each chapter
