Features: The strength of "Communication Theory" lies in its breadth of content, well-organized and balanced presentation. It strikes a balance between content and readability. The 5th edition, while retaining the features of previous editions, also focuses on making the material more readable. There have been no major improvements in the structure and reorganization of concepts, but instructors using this textbook will find that it includes new material and recent references. The book is divided into four parts: The Nature of Inquiry and Theory, An Introduction to Communication Theory and Research, Communication and Context, and Concluding Remarks.
