The tenth edition of Interplay continues the winning method of combining a readable, usable approach to interpersonal communication that students appreciate, with a solid foundation of research that professors know is essential in an academic study of the field. This introductory text presents current communication scholarship while showing the reader how principles of interpersonal communication operate in daily life. The book's lively four colour design makes the design more inviting to both students and professors, while increasing its emphasis on theory and research.
