Synopsis

We are "The Communication Age: Connecting and Engaging." No matter who you are or how you communicate―from baby boomers to millenials, born digital or getting there―we are all members of a society who connect through the internet, not just to it. From face-to-face to facebook, this book by Autumn Edwards, Chad Edwards, Shawn T. Wahl, and Scott A. Myers invites you to join the conversation about today′s issues and have your voice heard.

Review:

This text is right on target with content, format and layout. Great review sections at the end of chapters. Relevant photos, charts and illustrations. I have been teaching public speaking at the college level for over 30 years and have twice been ranked as the #1 Junior College Professor in the U.S. and I am certain that this textbook will be a welcome addition to the library of any speech educator looking for a solid, no nonsense book that will engage all students and transform the teaching of researching, outlining, delivering and addressing anxiety.
