Lucidly written and completely engaging, this text provides students with the tools they will need to succeed no matter what the interview. FeaturesThe text provides students with the broadest coverage of interviewing available today -- including a variety of settings ignored by other texts -- students will understand how interviewing techniques differ by situations and contexts. The text covers several unique interviewing situations that are on the cutting edge of communication research, including interviewing in the media, interviewing in the legal setting, interviewing in politics, and interviewing in everyday life. Each chapter includes an interview with a professional from the field covered in that chapter, providing students with an opportunity to view how interviewing is applied in that particular context. To constantly reinforce the contexts around the interviewing process, each chapter includes multiple sidebars on related theoretical and applied issues. The text offers numerous scenarios and discussion questions throughout to help students make connections between theory, research, and application.Praise for "Interviewing: Situations and Contexts" "I think you have the most comprehensive, student friendly, and interesting interviewing book on the market. A good text always generates new insights, ideas, and applications. If those are the criteria, this text not only meets, but exceeds them." "This is one of the most readable texts I have encountered in a long time. It is easy to follow with an excellent balance. . . ." "Esin C. Turk, Mississippi Valley State University"
