Among Cultures: The Challenge of Communication

"Through its unique approach of using narratives and stories to convey theories and concepts, this text, now in its fourth edition, gives students a foundational knowledge in intercultural communication. This edition continues with an interpretive approach to intercultural communication that is dedicated to providing resources to understand and explain the reasonableness of other cultural systems. New to the edition is increased explorations of immigration, racism, intersectionality, and privilege. Each chapter again closes with a summary, reflection questions, and suggestions for activities available for students own review or as potential class exercises. The book is an ideal companion for introductory or upper-level undergraduate courses in intercultural communication. Online resources provide students with additional self-test questions, activities, and further readings. Also online, instructors will find lecture slides and an instructor guide that includes a summary of chapter objectives, suggested supplemental reading, sample discussion and test questions, and additional classroom activity prompts"--
