Get Your Hands On Human Communication In SocietyAlberts, Jess K., Nakayama, Thomas K., Martin, Judith N. Envisioned By Jess K. Alberts, Thomas K. Nakayama, Judith N. Martin Available As Textbook

not rent this as an eTextbook! It wouldn't allow me to read the textbook using my computer, and when I tried to use the Kindle app on my android phone, I found that it doesn't read like a kindle book.
It basically shows a screenshot of each page as the pages of the book, so you have to take the time to zoom in and scroll perfectly down each line to read it very time consuming and frustrating! There are much better ebook versions out there, choose one of those or a hard copy.
Luckily 's support team responded very quickly and offered me a refund for the textbook order so that I could get a hard copy instead.
I thought this book was a really boring read, I understand that college is STEREO TYPICALLY supposed to be somewhat dry and dull, and the book fits right into that CATEGORY.
I still can not get past the irony of reading a book, that is supposed to teach me how to ANALYZE whom I COMMUNICATE with and then present information in a way that the other RECEIVES it.
Yet, the book can not do it either, key words capitalizedBut seriously, I read the entire book and did very well in my COMclass.
However, I dreaded reading this book every day, I think it could be condensed to a much smaller and much interesting version, The other problem I had with the book was it's definitions of key terms, Many times I would have to look them up online to make sense of them, I would also organize the book differently, For example, every time it mentions a theory, I would create a text box on the page, that gave a profile of that theory.
I must admit, I did learn a few things reading this book, but the amount of pages that I read while learning nothing new was immense.
In all fairness, Im onlychapters in, Ive given up on really taking my time to read the book because everything presented thus far is pretty common knowledge.
That said, the information that is presented is easy to understand myth grader could read it with no trouble.
The thing that really bothers me is the vast amount of typos and missing words, It breaks my focus every time I come across one, I cant believe they published it like this Textbook bent a little, The price is outrageous considering it's a flimsy paperback, I bought the softcover as it was onlythan the loose leaf edition, That's right an unbound book sells for over! The authors have done a great job explaining the subject.
My time with this book was measured not by time but instead by the number of dents in my desk from my head.
I found that repeated head trauma transformed the book from the most boring thing imaginable to a thought provoking, interesting read.
Head trauma is simply a must, If you find yourself dreading your time with this book, dont, Aside from the occasional nose bleed, this is truly life changing, NOTE: Access Code is NOT INCLUDED
