Success!By melanie *rainbowpixi*I NEVER review text books - but I felt like this one deserved it.It is one of the only (college) text books I have actually liked reading. It really doesnt feel like youre reading a text book when you are doing your chapter reading for class. It feels more like reading a good article online. for example. Or maybe a good "self help" book. For me. it has been enlightening at many points.It makes me see communication in an entirely different way - which. i guess. is the point - right?It really makes you feel like youve learned something. is easy to read (keeps your attention and doesnt bore you). and the material is realistically applicable to all areas of your life (i.e. work. school. friends. family. etc.)I must also say that it is one of the few text books that I will be keeping after the semester ends.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. CautionBy L. FletcherNote to potential buyers- Watch very carefully when you place your orders. I chose this book for my sons college class.he used it and attempted to trade it in.now realizing that the seller sold me an "Examination Copy" which. so far cannot be resold. In my case. the "Examination Copy" description was not listed anywhere. so I had no clue that the book I had was different from the one listed as described by . Very expensive lesson learned. I will now look up each and every textbook for trade in. as soon as I get them. and if they are not listed. I will return them immediatly!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
