Bridging Differences : Effective Intergroup Communication (2 Rev ed)

This new edition of the highly successful text on intergroup communication, Bridging Differences has been substantially updated.

New material includes: exchanging messages with other groups; examinations of differences related to age, social class and physical ability; discussions of ethical issues; and suggestions for improving the accuracy of intergroup attributions.

The volume's topicality is further enhanced by its increased emphasis on such issues as: culture and ethnicity; attitudes and stereotyping; and community building.

The author also explores the acquisition of the knowledge, motivation and skills necessary for effective intergroup communication.
