Download or read book Intercultural Communication written by Ling Chen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-04-10 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook takes a multi-disciplinary approach to offer a current state-of-art survey of intercultural communication (IC) studies. The chapters aim for conceptual comprehension, theoretical clarity and empirical understanding with good practical implications. Attention is mostly on face to face communication and networked communication facilitated by digital technologies, much less on technically reproduced mass communication. Contributions cover both cross cultural communication (implicit or explicit comparative works on communication practices across cultures) and intercultural communication (works on communication involving parties of diverse cultural backgrounds). Topics include generally histories of IC research, theoretical perspectives, non-western theories, and cultural communication; specifically communication styles, emotions, interpersonal relationships, ethnocentrism, stereotypes, cultural learning, cross cultural adaptation, and cross border messages;and particular context of conflicts, social change, aging, business, health, and new media. Although the book is prepared for graduate students and academicians, intercultural communication practitioners will also find something useful here.

Download or read book The Art and Science of Effective and Impactful COMMUNICATION written by Karminder Ghuman, PhD and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2024-08-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication makes a big difference. A deeper understanding of this domain can enable individuals and professionals to achieve their intended objectives. Imparting education and corporate training in the field of communication for more than 25 years has been a transformational experience. Grappling with the realities of communication and parallel to that, conducting informal research regarding various communication principles has been an exhilarating experience. I believe that for what all I have gained while having a very interactive interface with the world of communication, now is the right time to repay by assimilating all my experiences in the form of a very comprehensive book in which the concepts and principles of communication are narrated in a lucid and non-textual manner. The objective of writing this book is to fulfill the need of individuals who need focused literature to develop their communication not only from an operational angle, like writing or making an oral presentation, but also as communication happens typically every second in formal and informal settings of the personal and working life of an individual. An attempt has been made to have an application bias instead of a theoretical one.

The combined years of his research and personal experiences in working with individuals, couples, and families from different cultural, social, and educational settings, he has the honor and privilege to write this book, with practical implications for individuals, couples, parents, pastors, community leaders, counselors, educators, and researchers.
