There is a lot of useful information in this book on how to effectively communicate, but honestly, some of the information seemed like common sense for me. I feel cheated in having to take a course on communication for my accounting major, but the class itself wasn't hard.Topics covered that i remember are:1) guides to powerpoint2) how to do well in an interview3) different types of communication channels (face to face, email, letter, memo, etc...)4) cultural differences: western vs eastern, individualistic vs collectivist...5) conflict management - how to deal with conflicts in the workplace (harassment, bullying...)6) and others...
This book, is probably the most useless form of academic material on planet Earth. The fact that a rain forest was chopped down so that the words "small-group communication: involves a small number of people, usually engaged in face-to-face interaction, actively working together toward a common goal" could be written on the pages is the most horrific use of natural resources ever devised (Hamilton, 262). [yeah check out that APA format so you know its real.] When you are forced to purchase this garbage for your college course (because there is no other reason on the face of the planet that you would need to/or should read this blathering that a grade school english teacher could write in one night with 2 bottles of wine in her) let me sum up every single chapter for you in one sentence so that you don't blow $80 in your university bookstore... There are a lot of ways to communicate with someone: your words, the way you dress, your body language - make sure that you have basic understanding of social interactions and have some understanding that there are different cultures, and that sometimes the middle finger to someone means "hello, i love you". The end, Cheryl Hamilton i want my money.
This book is a required text for school, but light weight and easy to navigate
