Review

Ever feel like men and women speak a different language? Communications expert Pauline Rowson unravels the mysteries to this and other communication puzzles in her fascinating new book. The News This is a good introduction and refresher on communication sciences. It strikes the right balance in both language and style for most readers. I gained valuable insight into some baffling situations, such as people's behaviour at meetings, and the impression created by one's wardrobe. Overall I feel better equipped for future interactions. Nursery World Magazine This is one of those pocketable books that you can carry around and refer to from time to time.The chapters are broken down into manageable chunks and there is a useful summary at the end of each. AS with all Step by Step Guides this one is enhanced by its brevity and lack of waffle. Illustrated with diagrams andline drawings it is a useful and readable addition to the series. Reading Chronicle.
