Review # 1 was written on 2014-04-28 00:00:00 Cory Carter "This resource will put you at ease regarding what is known about human communication and how you can put it to use in your professional work. A desk reference and an important compendium of all things related to how and why people communicate with real life examples relevant to the most vexing challenges we face as professionals working with groups, dyads, triads, etc."

Review # 2 was written on 2015-01-08 00:00:00 Travis Knight This is probably one of the two best anthologies, I've ever held in my hands, regardless the theme (the second is, unsurprisingly, its successor: The Wilderness Debate Rages On: Continuing the Great New Wilderness Debate). That's partly because the editors did an amazing job of selecting the most relevant and interesting articles and organizing them into logical and convenient system, and partly because of an excellent introduction in which they go through the collection and article by article describe the main points of the respective texts and set them in context of the other ones. This latter point should not be taken lightly - it helps the reader tremendously with orienting in this rather extensive collection (see the page count!) and selecting the right article he/she find most useful. Just by reading the introduction the reader gets a fair picture of the debate going on in both the academic field and in practice.
