Book Summary of Group Communication
"Group Communication examines the most effective ways of communicating and interacting within social and work groups, and offers a clear understanding of group communication."
"Group Communication" delves into groundbreaking research in group interaction and analyzes its implications for everyday situations, including discussion of how groups can change over time, the impact of conformity pressures, leadership and team roles, and problem solving.
