Focus on Relating to Others: The foundation of the first five editions, “Being Other Oriented” continues to be the central theme of the book and helps students understand the importance of focusing on others in and to develop specific skills, such as empathy, that will improve the quality of their interpersonal communication. Chapter features include
- “Understanding Others: Adapting to Differences” which promotes a greater awareness of diversity in multiple contexts.
A more enhanced “Relating to Others in the 21st Century”, which addresses specific issues associated with contemporary communication contexts including computer-mediated-communication, social networking, and texting.
“Being Other Oriented” sidebars that help identify aspects of interpersonal communication throughout the text, where relating to others would improve communication effectiveness.
- “Applying an Other Orientation” sections at the end of each chapter and examples and discussions throughout the book.
Balance of Theory and Skills: Praised by reviewers for its balanced presentation of principles and skills, the book combines comprehensive overviews of interpersonal theory and research to help students understand how they communicate, coupled with strategies for improving their interpersonal communication skills. “Building Your Skills” Boxes contain exercises that promote interactive learning and practice of key concepts and skills.
An Emphasis on Diversity: Fully integrated coverage of cultural diversity incorporates the growing body of research that focuses on human differences, highlighted in a complete chapter on diversity (Chapter 4), “Understanding Others: Adapting to Differences” Boxes and examples, illustrations and research conclusions liberally woven throughout each chapter to help students identify ways to bridge differences and become more other oriented.
New “Communication and Emotion” Boxes help students understand how emotions impact their interpersonal relationships and that emotional connections are essential in relating to others.
Well-developed pedagogy: Numerous pedagogical aids, including chapter objectives and outlines, the hallmark “Recap” features that summarize key concepts within chapters, a complete margin glossary, and end-of-chapter study aids, help students review, apply and master the fundamental principles and skills of interpersonal communication.
