Summary:
Praised for its "teachability," Thinking Through Communication provides an excellent, balanced introduction to basic theories and principles of communication, making sense of a complex field through a variety of approaches. In an organized and coherent manner, Thinking Through Communication covers a full range of topics--from the history of communication study to the methods used by current communication scholars to understand human interaction. The book explores face-to-face communication in a variety of traditional contexts: interpersonal, group, organizational, public, intercultural, computer-mediated communication and the mass media. This edition also offers new insights public speaking and listening. Written in a clear, lively style, Trenholm's overall approach--including her use of examples and interesting illustrations--helps develop a better understanding of communication as a field of study and an appreciation for ways in which communication impacts our daily lives.

Great book.
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This book is very thorough but EASY to understand. Recommend it to anyone who needs an intro book to communication.

Dreadful
Customer Rating:  Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1
I found this book to be hypocritical and vacuous. Students will get little out of it that they don't already know. The author talks down to students and "dumbs down" the topics covered.

The Littlejohn textbook is much better.


This is a great introductory text!
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Sara Trenholm is a gifted writer. This is another in a series of well prepared communication texts by this author.

The healthy balance between theory and practical advice makes it both challenging and yet easy to digest. I have used this text as a resource since it first crossed my desk in its first edition.

My only criticism of this book is that it is not visually appealing. However, the person who wants information will find it to be highly pracital and usable.


A good book with many examples; almost too many.
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3
This book is an excellent book for a communication's class. It presents many understandable and relatable examples. But its greatest fall back is the overwhelming amount of information, there is just too much to remember! Another weakness of the book is its lackluster in appearance; it is just an ugly book which can be a big turn off when you want to read it through.
