Communication connects with every area of our lives, whether our professional lives, our friendships, our romantic connections, our educational opportunities, even our relationships with ourselves and God. Becoming a Better Communicator: A Basic Course in Interpersonal and Public Communication expresses a moral and ethical perspective that applies to students' real lives. By doing this, the content fills the disconnect between ""Christian belief"" practiced in church services and everyday life. Utilizing a very casual writing style that is relatable to first-year college students, Becoming a Better Communicator examines all elements of communication: nonverbal, listening, interpersonal relationships, diversity, problem solving / conflict, group / leadership, public speaking, and much more. In addition, the publication is loaded with student-friendly pedagogical features (Chapter introductions, sidebars, summaries, vocabulary lists, beautiful photos, references, discussion questions, etc.) to help students assess their comprehension of content presented.
