Excellent Resource Book

I took this class in college years ago where we had this book. It is excellent! Reading it is like going to the psychologist - lots of "aha" moments, understanding what type(s) of communication styles people you interact with have. Also has effective methods to communicate better. I sold my seventh edition back to the bookstore because I needed the money at the time, but then bought it back later (6th edition), which I didn't like as much. The cartoons in the book, used as illustrations to make points are especially helpful and often humorous. This was the best class I took in college - it has helped me for the rest of my life!!! Even if you do not take the class, it is a fun and easy read and would make a great gift.

Academic Analysis

Interplay is a first rate academic treatment of the communications we face on a day to day basis. This book will be useful not only in the classroom but with all your relationships you encounter throughout your life
