Applications Of Nonverbal Communication

This edited volume presents the practical applications suggested by research in non-verbal communication, and highlights the limitations-noting where we simply do not yet know enough to safely and fully inform practice. The book is divided into four parts: health applications of nonverbal communication; including medical health care settings; legal and political applications of nonverbal communication, including its application to the courtroom; nonverbal communication in business and education; and social and cultural issues. This book is intended to appeal to a diverse group of practitioners, researchers, and students from a variety of disciplines including psychology, sociology, communications, anthropology, and management interested in the topic of nonverbal communication. It may also serve as a supplement in upper level undergraduate and/or graduate courses on nonverbal communication.
