The research-based theories we present in this text, coupled with the street savvy you have developed over the course of your life, will equip you with a strong foundation of reading situations, acting appropriately, and adapting your communication behaviors. As instructors in the field of communication, we believe that personal improvement in communication begins with a clear understanding of own attitudes and of the relationships you build with others. Human Communication will help you develop the skills you need to tell the story of your life and serve as a foundation for lifelong success. -From the Authors
520 _aYour life is punctuated with critical moments in which communication plays an important role. Whether you are talking to a potential employer during a job interview, a love one about an important issue facing your family, or an instructor about an assignment, what you say and how you say it can dramatically shape the outcome of an interaction. Our goal in writing Human Communication is to help you feel confident in any situation. We want you to have the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to be a successful communicator. We want you to be ready to: 1. Communicate effectively in novel and uncertain situations
