Description

This book is broad in scope. It reaches freely across many different fields of study. But all of its range converges and focuses on a single point - the heart and core of human communication. It airms to present the basic features, the common denominators that are the underpinnings of all the subtlety, variety, and ubiquity of the processes of communication. It airms to present the common threads between verbal and nonverbal signals, between signals and meanings, and between face-to-face networks and national networks.
