Nonverbal Communication in Human Interaction


Nonverbal Communication in Human Interaction 
by Mark Knapp 
First published 1972

A comprehensive and readable compendium of research and theory on nonverbal communication which uses the cross-disciplinary approaches of speech and social psychology. Written by a communication scholar and two social psychologists, the book shows how nonverbal communication affects a wide variety of academic interests. With theory and research from scholars with a wide variety of academic backgrounds, including communication, anthropology, counselling, psychology, psychiatry, and linguistics, later editions include new material on nonverbal messages and technology/media covering the increasing amount of communication that is mediated by some form of technology.
