Reflections in Communication
University Press of America (Verlag)
978-0-7618-4162-3 (ISBN)
Reflections in Communication is a response and guide to the need for productive and effective communication and is designed for readers who have had little or no formal instruction in the field of speech communication. Dealing with cultural, critical and contextual issues, the text provides a comprehensive coverage. With an outstanding collection of chapters to develop knowledge and skills, this book uses an array of resources for communicating effectively in democratic societies. An added emphasis is the utilization of interdisciplinary approaches in dealing with principles, concepts, activities and theories of communication with research evidence.
Based on the author's background as a communication generalist, this perceptive volume has broken ground because it applies communication study to a wide variety of situations, such as self concept, perception, listening, interpersonal, interviewing, cultural, small group, speaking to inform and persuade, and addressing freedom and responsibility issues in democratic societies.
Dr. Kanu, who is a native of Sierra Leone, immigrated to the United States 32 years ago to further his education. He received his Bachelor, Master, and Doctor of Arts in community college education and speech communication instruction from George Mason University. Dr. Kanu is currently a professor of speech communication at Northern Virginia Community College in Annandale, Virginia.
