Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This text addresses the core issues and concerns of intercultural communication by integrating three different perspectives: the social psychological, the interpretive, and the critical. The dialectical framework, integrated throughout the book, is used as a lens to examine the relationship of these research traditions. This text is unique in its emphasis on the importance of histories, popular culture, and identities.

Book News Annotation:

Martin and Nakayama's (both Arizona State U.) introductory textbook combines three different perspectives--the social psychological, the interpretive, and the critical--in examining the key issues and concerns of intercultural communication. The fourth edition features expanded discussion of globalization and its importance to intercultural communication, new material on blogs and online intercultural relationships, expanded discussion of religious identity, and new material on the roles played by churches and government institutions in intercultural contact.
