While highlighting the breadth of interpersonal communication research and theory, Interplay also gives students the practical skills they need to improve their own relationships.
This new edition of Interplay is the most contemporary text available.

Expanded discussions of intersectionality, code-switching, disability studies, and gender and language emphasize the role of culture and identity in shaping interactions. Every chapter is full of updated features, including”Focus on Research” and “Dark Side of Communication” boxes. Students can explore and apply concepts with the viral videos and discussion questions in the new “Watch and Discuss” activities that appear in every chapter.
