Description: | Select Guide Rating This resource looks at every aspect of intercultural communication from extensive number of insightful angles, including of contexts such as cultural or ethnic, geographic and situational, covering both verbal and non-verbal interaction, alongside a range of theories and perceptions. The 8th edition continues to be a proven resource for media, culture and communications students. In this fully updated Eighth Edition of Intercultural Communication: A Contextual Approach, author James W. Neuliep provides a clear contextual model (visually depicted by a series of concentric circles) for examining communication within cultural, microcultural, environmental, sociorelational, and perceptual contexts. Beginning with the broadest context—the cultural component of the model—the book progresses chapter by chapter through the model, to the most specific traits of communication, verbal and nonverbal messages. Each chapter focuses on one context and explores the combination of factors within that context, including setting, situation, and circumstances. Highlighting values, ethnicity, physical geography, and attitudes, the book examines means of interaction, including body language, eye contact, and the exchange of words, as well as the stages of relationships, cross-cultural management, intercultural conflict, and culture shock. |
