Much of the success of New Directions stems from the editors’ selection of strong contributors. These are definitely the people to be reading. Perhaps more important, the editors asked contributors to tell the story of their research by addressing basic questions on the origins of their work, the methods they used, their most important findings and challenges, and the directions they and other might take the work in the future.

Journal of Communication

"Books, particularly edited volumes, rarely succeed in expressing either a sense of history or a clear vision of the discipline’s leading edge. New Directions in Interpersonal Communication Research, succeeds at both."

Malcolm Parks

Good supplemental text for upper-division interpersonal course.

Dr Erina MacGeorge

I found the book very useful to recommend to my students because it gives an overview and analysis of the past and current research in interpersonal communication. Students who are taking Interpersonal Communication courses may not be aware of the rich background in research as well of the on-going interdisciplinary studies in this field. The chapters discuss relevant topics to undergraduate students, such as relational, media and cultural aspects in interpersonal communication. The authors also suggest ideas for further research and apply theory to more specific interpersonal situations.

Mrs Jurgita Babarskiene

Sections of this book will be very useful for my students in the module Communication and Social Interaction. Will highly likely remain as recommended reading for the revalidated module from 2012 onwards

Dr Paul Hutchings

A useful source of information on aspects of interpersonal communication that my students would benefit from considering

Mr Darren Prince

Although I found one or two chapters to be interesting, the book was too specific for a general course of social psychology.

Mrs Karla Felix

Research reviewed was most current and is thoughtfully synthesized. Text is accessible to upper-level undergrads as well as grad students.
